Wordless Wednesday
I’m not sure if this is a Gopher or a Prairie Dog, but whatever it is I imagine that it was just trying to enjoy the nut it found when the birds around it decided that they wanted their share too.
I think the birds are Grackles. I didn’t see many of this kind of bird this year, but they usually love our bird feeders!
I guess this Prairie Dog knows how we feel when we eat outside and we’re all of a sudden surrounded by Sea Gulls or Pigeons. Eh?
These Birds are just nasty! Alfred Hitchcock was right!
Poor little gopher or prairie dog…
LOL… Now that is a pretty cool picture… The prairie dog needs to take that nut and run.
That’s funny! I find myself feeling sorry for the porr fella!
Ha!

How To Get Your Peace Globe November 2007
Peace,

Awesome picture. I would love to get shots like that, but every time I put my hand on a camera every bird within 2 miles vanishes!
what a great photo! i can just imagine what that little mammal was thinking when those pushy birds tried to take his nuts!
great photo!!!!!!!!!!! 😉
I can see the caption now….MINE MINE MINE! BACK OFF BIRDS IF YOU KNOW WHAT’S GOOD FOR YA!!!
🙂
That is an EXCELLENT shot!
Don’t know what kind of birds those are, but they’re not grackles. Used to have grackles in my yard all the time. They look like this:
Oops, here’s the link for the grackle photo:

Oh Cute!!! I think that animal is what we call a ‘dassie’ in South Africa, but anyhow… 🙂
Its such a cute picture! 🙂
if he’s scared, he’s definitely not showing it. Good on ya fella.

and like the big gopher said. ” you have to protect your nuts ” lol nice photo
The birds almost look like fledging teenagers with those white flecks…maybe this poor critter did the Disney thing and raised up a brood of some other species, and now can’t get them out of the house. Teenagers, what are ya gonna do?
That’s a super headline for the picture. Just right!
I can’t believe you went “there”! Tricia!
ahahaha oh man that’s great! I’d like to see a video of that.
