To All My Family and Friends

I pray that 2010 brings blessing for all

thank you for sharing 2009 with me

Our Family Christmas Morning

We had a great time.  Mercedes, my youngest stayed and we went to

see Sherlock Holmes.  When we came out it was icy and slick, so she just stayed the night.

Who would have thought we'd get 7+ inches..and still going.

I do have a couple of winter pics..but it's so deep and

so cold.  I'll need to take some tomorrow

Happy EVERYONE had a memorable Christmas

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas

Wanted, A Source for CHEAP Birdseed

...no BIRDS

Since our return from our trip

we have been unable to find

extra funds to feed the birds here.

Does anyone know a source for good

quality peanuts, mixed and sunflowers?

We spend about 150.00 when we

buy all three. I have been making my own

suet, but that's all they get .

Let me know

Our First Snow of the Winter

Just the right amount, a dusting

Wild Things

My daughter Nicole's dog Bella comes to visit

My cat Mya doesn't like her AT ALL, Mya hisses her warning

Bella runs to play with Mya, who runs to get away

hissing the entire time.

Poor Bella.

They were wild

Happy Thanksgiving

To All My Nature Friends

I am thankful for my life here in the Singing Woods

My Nature Friends

This guy was in the field last friday

when I took my walk.  He just looked at

me for a bit.

You may have to click to enlarge this one

Mr Hawk was perched on the deck right

under the bird feeders..looking for

breakfast.  I was inside and it's

rainy out so I didn't get a GOOD picture.

Not a creature was stirring ..they know when

he's around.

I spied this nest (wren) in a tree at the edge of the singing

woods. Make entirely of small twigs woven together.

 Awesome

F O R D

this guy was on the road and not moving

He's a cousin of the snake who ate my toad.

You know I hate snakes , but

this was

Found On Road Dead

Nature

I love how this tree's roots ..uprooted by wind..looks like a Star Anis Seed

This guy was on the tippy top of

our bedbroom window on the second floor.

The first praying mantis I've seen this year.

I have also spotted a Pileated Woodpecker several

times in the last two weeks.  My goal is to get

a picture.  Oh I love them!!
