Soft and lovely wind chimd


We are so behind here, as far as Spring. The weather has been cool, we had snow on Easter

and the blooms are just not coming out . During a thunderstorm today, I managed o get out and find some ITSY signs of spring. Tulips and jonquils peeking out, a tansy from my friend Robin who sent the plant all the way

from New York showing it's greenery.

Some VERY shy Goldfinches at the feeder.

A new wind chime Rich just bought for me and hung.

Lat year's Hydrangea still looking artistic.

Some Hollyhocks starting to grow, a bit of the color green.

on the clematis...just a bit of purple.

Not good pictures, but good signs!

I love a good thunderstorm it's invigorating. Me & My Bald Head loved it!!

Hummingbirds ..coming soon

I'm getting excited. Every year I've watched the

tracking maps to get my feeders out in time.

Here's the hummingbird migration map site

The males arrive first..before blooms

so get your feeders out in time, 

add some potted plants for COLOR

.

Some shots of last year. The hummers liked the 

Oriole feeder and the Orioles liked the Hummer feeder!!

The silhouette is Mr Hummer watching his

feeding place from a tree.

Who's this Guy ???

He walked around so nonchalantly in the

back yard, right before dusk,  eating bird seed on the 

ground.

  He's darker than Mr Sanders,

(my other possum) and has a BIG tail.

BUT, remember they are marsupials, 

not rodents..

I opened the kitchen window to take this

& whenever I'd talk to him, he'd look, but

he sure wasn't skeered of me..

LOL

Guess he knew I'm one of the GOOD GUYS.

The Turkey's Visit

Yesterday, Sunday about 4 PM, I looked out

the window above the kitchen sink & there were

more than a dozen turkeys in the back of the yard.

I tried to get pics through the window, but

they didn't turn out good.

So hubby went out the garage to try to 

get a few pictures.

Needless to say, these turkeys are shy, they hear WELL &

started HUSTLING over the hill.

He got a couple of glimpses , but not what I'd hoped for.

Two weeks ago,  about 1/2 mile away we saw at least 50 in the field

eating.  Oh to have had my camera then.!!

I love nature, and each glimpse of the gifts God made

for us THRILLS me!!

Through the window.

They stopped in for any EARLY morning

snack today!

It's not the best picture, but it was delightful to see them.
