My next door neighbor continues to feed the skunks and possums, there's chickens in these them hills, and strange reindeer have been spotted, but I'm thinking differently about wildlife these days. Instead of this highfalutin attitude of "undisturbed in nature," I say, "Welcome, all ye animals to the 'hood."

Mt. Washington Chicken
This fine specimen was just sitting there, not moving a muscle...
The Rat's Nest would like to introduce its readers to its two newest members—Blu and Lily.
Blu is blue
I haven't had pets for awhile, or been responsible for anything livelier than a house plant. I hope I'm up for the task. These rats are wild little things; I've got to keep an eye on them or they'll disappear down a hole or out the door. They're hard to capture...by hand or in a photograph:
But it's nice to have rats for the Rat's Nest again. They can always be counted on for some good laughs and bringing new life to this old blog. More to come.
(P.S. In case you're wondering, Lily and Blu are kept in a cage, but they get out to play a few times a day...)
