CHIPMUNK

Found this chipmunk in my yard.  It's hard to believe it is really a rat.

Tulip Poplar

The tulip poplar is one of the largest native hardwood trees of Eastern North America.  It has one of the most beautiful blooms of any flowering tree.

MRS. SALLY'S BIRDS

Somewhere on Taylor Grocery Road between Rentz and Dexter lives Sally Hoover.  Sally loves birds, all birds.  She feeds them year round.  If you sit on her front porch long enough, you'll see a dozen or more birds.  Here cardinals abound, sometimes ten at a time.
