First Day of June

 Greetings friends and fans. This is The Daily Bone, and I'm your dedicated doggie reporter, Chester L. W. Spaniel.

It's been a while since we've posted. We still don't have the new computer up and running, and my ghostwriter had to work the entire holiday weekend.  Harumph!

Anyway, as you can see, there are lots of flowers blooming in our yard right now. 

For our next story, the Evil Squirrel Cartel has been trying to plunder the birdie feeders again. Here's Einstein Dingaling and Madam Curie Potatochips:

Rats! Not much to eat down here! 

Madam Currie Potatochips tried to go to the source, with no success. If anything heavier than a sparrow gets on our feeder, the seed ports close.

Curses! 

If you're so smart, let's see you crack that safe! 

Heheheheh!

Hey squirrels,  your ride is here!

And if you don't want to take a swim in the street cleaner truck, there goes the garbage truck!

Bwahahahaha!

But wait, there's more! The crazy red angry cardinal is still trying to attack his reflection in the dining room window. 

Cowabunga!

Yipes!

In conclusion, we must take a few minutes to appreciate the beautiful blue skies, and spectacular summer clouds. 

And that's our report for today!

Good night!

Angry Bird

 Hello. This is The Daily Bone and I'm your diligent doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel. We're still without a regular full size computer, but we're trying to post from ghostwriter's cell phone.  

(I can't say what my ghostwriter's saying right now, but she's really frustrated with the itty-bitty screen on her phone.) 

Anyway, we have a very angry birdie red cardinal who's been attacking his own reflection in our dining room window

He usually strikes in the early part of the day when the sun is shining on the window.  And he's really angry! 

Yipes! I'm hoping he doesn't smash himself flat! 

Ka-blam!!!!!

Computer Problems

 

Sorry we haven't been around much lately.  My ghostwriter's computer was hacked and now she's locked out of it. (Long story. ) We're in the process of getting a new one. In the meantime, we're trying to figure out how to do a proper blog post on her cell phone.

Flowers and Weeds?

Greetings friends and fans. This is The Daily Bone and I'm your handy dandy doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel.

It's been cloudy, rainy, and windy this week. 

Nevertheless, things are still growing and greening up. 

What?

Yeah, I know. Those are dandelions.

We happen to like dandelions!

They're  magical! 

After a little while they look like this: poof!

What's not to like?

Oh, we almost forgot! Today is Cinco de Mayo! Have fun!

Pico de Gallo

Earth Day!

 Hello! This is The Daily Bone and I'm your enthusiastic doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel. 

Today is one of my favorite days of the year: Earth Day!

I'm going to wander around my yard and try to find some earthworms, and roots, and plants that are all living in the nice dirt and mud. Unfortunately, it's a very cold, windy day and there's still some snow on the ground in some spots. (More about the snow later.) Most of the yard was still quite mushy and muddy.

But we managed to find a couple small, pink earthworms underneath some rocks.

YESTERDAY, we awoke to find snow everywhere and still falling!

Hey, who ordered this snow?

This is the pear tree, which had just started to bloom:

The Great Grackle Flying PTA (Poop Tossers Association) spent most of that wintry day sitting on the oak tree in a disgruntled group, freezing their tail feathers off! 

Heheheheh!

More photos: 

Don't worry. The flowers are all right. The snow melted by the end of the day.

Later in the afternoon, we had a surprise visit by none other than Mr. Cool Beans Cooper, our friendly neighborhood Cooper's Hawk. The picture is not so good, because it was taken through the screen on the window of my ghostwriter's office.

Hey, Mr. C. B. Cooper, when are you going to catch those crummy, rotten, despicable squirrels? 

OK, back to today: it's been snowing on and off all day with little accumulation, and now it's getting even more windy!

The weatherman says by tomorrow, things will warm up again.

I'm hoping it will get warm enough for the little bees to come and pollinate the pear blossoms so we can have some yummy pears this summer!
