Dear Duchess

Happy Monday! This Sunday was Father's Day! Let us wish ALL those fathers out there a "Happy Fathers Day." We have decided to postpone this weeks newsletter until Monday, since our last newsletter was only published this last Wednesday. If it works out for everyone, we may start publishing on Mondays instead of Sundays. That would give us a weekend off and gathering time for putting & publishing each weeks

While NW Okie & David were gone to Arizona last week, we had our Neighborhood Bear make a return visit to our feeders. This time he pulled a even stronger metal hanging pole (not the one pictured in the linked photo) completely to the ground. This Duchess Pugster did not get a photo of the wild beast, though, 'cause my paws do not operate the camera very well. I'm all thumbs, so to speak! AND ... NW Okie took her digital camera with her. Oh Well! Next time! If there is a next time!

NW Okie took down the hummingbird and bird feeders after the second visit of the neighborhood bear to discourage the bear from staking out his territory in our backyard. It is that time of year (June) when mother bears send their oldest cubs out into the world to stake their own territories.

AND ... on another note, the good side is the extra sunflower seeds the birds have spilled on the ground have been sprouting, so maybe we will have some sunflowers for the birds later on in the summer months.
