Friday Show and Tell - Critters on the Deck


Show and Tell
Show and tell Friday is hosted by Kelli at There is No Place Like Home.

I really enjoy looking at the industrious birds and squirrels as they go about their daily activities in the trees. On my deck I have a few garden ornaments which relate to my enjoyment of the creatures in the yard.

Here on the railing is a squirrel which is actually a lawn sprinkler. I have never used it as such, but keep it to accessorize the deck. He is very busy having a tasty morsel.




A small cement bunny rests on a wire table along with a potted fern and terracotta accents.


A tin hen and her four chicks look at home near the potted ‘hens and chicks’ or sempervivum.
