Wild Wednesday ...

... good collage day!

I took well over 200 pictures today of a myriad of things so it had to be a collage today!  Thanks to Cailleach for keeping Wednesday's wild!

My collage features only a fraction of the wildlife photographed today ... including a Ruby-throated hummingbird, common grackle, eastern chipmunk and an eastern gray squirrel.  

We didn't get out for our normal evening walk as Richard was helping our neighbor take down her swimming pool.  She had been experiencing some trouble with it for the past few years and was told it wasn't fixable.  The pool guy gave her a ridiculous quote to remove it ($950!) ... and it would be up to her to dispose of everything!  And Richard being Richard offered to help her take it down.  The job was done in no time ... she had already drained the pool and done some of the work herself ahead of time.  I've included a picture in the lower right of the progress.
