A tree full of graceful Spanish Moss. It drapes itself from many of the trees in the area. In the Springtime, azaleas burst forth in their lovely splendor, giving the landscape vivid color. In the back yard, squirrels chase one another, jumping through the trees like trapeze artists. They also invade my bird feeders.
Turtles come up to the patio to feed, and have been known to try to come on in the back door.
Birds frequent our feeders and the three bird baths. Hummingbirds visit the flowers and the feeders in summer and fall. Families of raccoons parade through the yard day and night, sniffing the air for any type of food. Here are a mommy and her 3 babies eating on our back porch right after Hurricane Georges. Wild rabbits have been seen munching on the grass in late afternoon.
