Red headed "Ruth bird" visiting us lately!

A red head bird we named "Ruth" 

after our own red-head daughter!

What is it? Does anyone know?

We discovered this lovely bird last week at the feeder next to the patio. She is a lovely bird! Wish we knew all the names of the sweet characters God sends our way!

April fools! A morning surprise!

Our bird feeder has attracted many kinds of wildlife and birds this winter, from jays, doves, and squirrels, to gold finches, the State bird.  We have enjoyed the bird feeder entertainment all winter long!


This morning held another surprise visitor... a male mallard duck dropped in for a visit. He stayed about a half hour before he flew off to the next grazing place.

ROBINS!!! It's SPRING! (be still my heart!)

While eating lunch today, Al noticed a few robins in the yard eating THEIR lunch! On closer look he counted ten from where he sat! I went to the window and counted FOURTEEN in our backyard. This shot of four is just about where the snowman laid a few days ago. 

It's spring! (I hope!?)
