Frank, here in Texas we are thinking of you, your family, the sheep, and all of Ireland that is undergoing this horrific weather. Keep safe--you...
Overcast skies, cold, and I'm holing up in the kitchen with classical music on the CD player and baking breads and a custard pie. Please let it...
Syd, I am so impressed with your photos of birds. Have you considered mounting a display of them at a local library or community center? I'm...
I think I remember seeing the photo of the mess they made of your pots, etc. in that back building. No wonder you aren't a big fan of the little...
Invite those nice folks more often! If they want to come to Texas, I'll cook. Lovely roses, and at this time of year, doubly appreciated. You...
Buddy is certainly living up to his name! Nyla will come around, especially when Reuben learns to pet her.
My itch is soon to be scratched! The shelving, lights, and trays come in from the barn this weekend and I'll set up my starting area in the guest...

Those budget cuts have gone just too far!
You DO have a great variety of birds! I'm surprised that you get gulls, but then, they are opportunistic birds. Once a year, always in the...
Well done, Eileen! Love that caption, as well as the photo.
Syd, you piqued my interest with your question about the origin of "downy" for the woodpecker. Turns out you were absolutely right, spot on! They...
