Goldfinch brilliance
Lillian Cucuzza, of Land O’ Lakes, has had male and female goldfinches hanging around her feeder, and said the birds are finally turning their beautiful yellow colors. The male goldfinch is bright yellow with a black cap on his head. Note: the background on the photo is not edited out, but is due to the aperture on the camera Cucuzza used.
Simon likes to snuggle
Simon, who speaks with a British accent, is 7 years old and is the best little Yorkie. He is not a barker unless someone is at the door or if you mention the word ‘mail.’ Simon enjoys watching the birds come to the bird feeder, and his favorite treat is baby carrots. Simon’s proud parents are Beth and Ray Ross, of Land O’ Lakes.

Taz is very friendly
Taz is a 5-year-old mixed breed. He loves to say hi to anyone and everyone. Every time Taz hears the phone ring, he does his happy dance because he’s hoping it means his best friend, Shiloh, is coming to visit. Taz enjoys going outside, chasing lizards, playing hide-and-seek, and chewing on his toys. And ‘chewing,’ means ripping the toys to shreds like it’s his job! Taz lives in Land O’ Lakes with his owners, Donna, John and Zach Schietinger.
