I’m Finished with Winter

by Kay~Kacey on 12/13/2010

Okay, it snowed. I got my birds in the snow pics. I’m ready for winter to be over now…

I seriously spent all day Sunday taking photos of the birds in the snow.

Lots of birds in the snow.

Cardinal in snowThe cardinals always make such a nice splash of color for me.

Why, yes, I did have a big old long to do list…that didn’t get finished. Bummer.

Life in Focus-Quiet Moments of Winter

Winter came down to our home one night
Quietly pirouetting in on silvery-toed slippers of snow,
And we, we were children once again.

This sweet little deer was in my backyard looking for food. They are cute in the winter…not so much in the spring when they come up and eat all my tulips!! Have a great weekend my friends!

tuppence a bag…(Name that song. Oh, never mind, I’ll tell you. It’s Feed the Birds from Mary Poppins. It’s a sad fact of life that I know all the words to it too…)

Anyway…I woke up to this bird giving me the eye. Seems they were out of bird seed.

SuperGuy to the rescue!

Okay, so I had to ask him nicely to please go out and feed the poor birdies. The bird feeder is too high up for me to fill it without a ladder. (okay, and it was COLD!)

Okay, so really I had to nag him ask him for 2 days.

Soon the branches were filled with my friends.

Everyone was happy and sated. (I love the word sated…)
