Thanks Chris! There were several more ladies but they had already started to leave to the left when I took the picture.
I'm still thrown by your porcupine sleeping in the tree pic. Now that's talent!!

YES! Not the rabbit though..... I had to enlarge your pic to find it.
That was a really good one.

Good eyes guys!
 What you can't see so well though is the birds head in the birds mouth....  Here is a closer look at what it was doing before it landed on that branch.....
That bird sat there eating it for over 5 hours till the sun went down. Crack of dawn it was at it again for another 4 hours till it was gone. -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

Very cool! I didn't realize that it was a shrike. I haven't seen one of those in a very long time.

Good one Caveman, AKA the Butcher Bird! This was a kill of it's own, not a find. Seems they will eat birds in the winter since there are no toads, insects and the rodents are harder to get under the snow. Very cool birds indeed, we have a pair that has come around for a bit now. They love to come to the gate and call for the cat to come out and play.  Drives her nuts but keeps her occupied.

Yes - The butcher bird. One of the few small birds that can actually do serious damage to a cat - if they feel threatened in some way!
Normally, though, they "play" with a cat. The game seems to be "How crazy came we make this furry critter before it gives up and goes away?" They are definitely better at it than mocking birds! -------------------- Caveman

Can you spot the hidden structure in this pic.
It's not the snowed-in Trappers cabin on the right nor the logs in the foreground on the right.

You got it!
It blends into the landscape really well, summer or winter. Has a fire pit in the center and an elevated wood floor. Comfy seating inside too. It was built by a professional teepee guy but I can't remember his name. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!

this one was really hard, it took a long hard look before the outline revealed itself. Tipi's are some of the coolest tents, and this one sounds like it would be great for a extended stay if one wanted. The snow up there looks great, but sure grinds on the Ol cabin fever, Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Here's a pic of it with the sun shining after the snow and zoomed out a little to show Cascade Mtn in the background.
