One-Liner Wednesday – Routine

Maddie likes her routine. When I travel, my part of her routine is disrupted, and she lets me know that I have to get back in the groove as soon as I return. That includes our weekend walks, even if it’s foggy with a chance of drizzle. We might be able to skip a crummy day, if we have had normal weekends for weeks on end, but after I’ve been gone for an entire weekend, she goes to where her harness and leash are hanging, and:

“Yo – it’s time for our walk!”

More and more often, we seem to be interrupting the early morning activity of the critters in the neighborhood as they get ready for winter.

Today’s gallery includes some local wildlife, photographed as we walked, both days!

Cool kid pole

I don’t know how many birds are on this post.

Not-so-cool kids.

“Mmmmmmmm acorns”

“You be careful up there”

“Do you want to go over to the other pole?” “No, it’s too crowded.”

Obviously, this is where the cool kids hang out.

“I think I overdid it…”

“If this fog doesn’t life soon, I’m gonna have trouble call fair vs. foul”

These guys were just hanging out in the fog.

Approaching the breakfast table, I got the feeling we weren’t welcome.

This is the end of our Forsythia. Lot’s of birdie-birds.

Some leaves have already fallen. Maddie is looking at the black squirrels.

“You guys just keep moving. I haven’t finished eating yet.”

“I’m not up here because I like apples. You guys need to get going so I can go back to the nuts on the ground.”
