Who needs to buy sunflower seeds?
I was reorganizing some stuff on my outside plant stand when I discovered this little beauty growing up between the shelves. Look familiar? Yup - it's a wild sunflower just like the ones I planted, only this one is nowhere near the bee garden. It must have grown from the bird seed that the squirrel dumped this winter.
And while I was photographing the sunflower - I came across a new little friend.
He was scooting around between the stand and the garbage can and didn't seem the least bit afraid of me.
I had to resist the urge to try and pick him up - he was just so tiny and fluffy and cute. Instead, I shooed the cats inside before they saw him and let him go about his business. I just really hope he's not the one lunching on my strawberries.

He's got strawberry thief written all over him!
I don't know .... he looks pretty well fed. LOL
Cute pictures!
I think mice are so cute until they eat all the wires in your Mini Cooper.
I don't mind mice if they're outside, but Star has been known to bring them inside to show them off; while still alive. I'm quite good at catching them and turfing them back outside again, I'm also used to the various cat accusations that arise from this particular manouver.
He's a cutie!
Love the sunflower; not so much a fan of mice...unless they keep their fluffy cuteness outside! This one you photographed is admittedly very cute!
