I've decided to try different allergy meds so I can adopt the stray cat that came into my yard a few days ago. He's the cuddliest little fluff ball. I took him to the vet and they gave him a FLV vaccine and said he's FIV+. Gave him a flea and tick treatment, and been brushing gobs of shedding hair out. Getting him neutered in a couple weeks. Named him Red and got him a rainbow collar with a name tag. He's turned my life upside down, but it's worth it.

Several hours and a can of tuna later, and he's purring and taking a nap on my lap. He decided to spend the night with me inside, so I plan on taking him to the vet in the morning to see if he's chipped. I don't want to steal a neighbors pet, but I would like the cat to live a health safe life indoors, where he's not eating birds.

Today I noticed the squirrels suddenly take off and start doing their alarm calls. I looked outside and there was this orange #cat in the bushes at the edge of the yard. I went outside to talk to it to tell it to not eat my bird friends, and the kitty was super friendly. He's used to people and his fur is in good shape and he talks a lot. He's probably someone's pet, but doesn't have any ID. He hasn't been neutered, either.

There were these Horse Chestnut trees blooming everywhere in Paris last month. Most had white flowers, but some had red flowers.

I was told that this tree was the oldest in Paris. It's in a small church garden across the river from the Notre Dame cathedral. When it started falling over, they installed these supports that are dressed up as tree trunks to keep it going. @plants
Tonight after eating dinner on my back porch, I noticed there was an unusual abundance of Downy Woodpecker noises. I eventually counted 5 of them spiraling around branches, chasing, feeding each other, calling, visiting the feeders, and circling over me to get a look. I saw red spots, but wasn't able to tell if any were juveniles. My heart is so full of joy right now!
I'll post some cool photos of mosses, flower, birds, etc. from vacation later on after I'm sure everything is working correctly again.
I love birds and birding. I post a lot of bird photos, and some other nature/animal/plant photos.
