Nutrias

I'm so completely forgetful. Yesterday, I meant to mention the most adorable nutrias we have ever seen. I know, I know. Adorable is not normally a word associated with them. But we were driving around yesterday afternoon, and just happened to come across three youngsters jumping around and grazing with their momma. OMG, so cute!!! My camera took forever to power back up, so by the time it came back on the security guard had come over to see if we were having problems and scared them off. So, no pictures. But baby animals of any time are just the cutest. Plus, when you don't see their tales they do like rather cute like beavers. ^___^

Today was rather fun so far. Got up early (hey, before 7 on a weekend is still early!) and took Nate for a walk - and amazingly enough it was actually slightly brisk instead of warm! Whoo! We flew around the neighborhood and even did a lap on the track up the road. So much fun! Also got the bright idea to brush off some of his shedding fur around my tomato plants in the front yard. Maybe the deer won't find them quite so tempting now. haha.

(Ok, I know that the nutria sighting wasn't technically on a nature walk. But I don't want five million tags and we have seen them on walks before, so I'm still using that tag here. So there. *G*)
