A Trio of Muggers

These little ones

can get into more mischief

and still look so innocent!

 

 

"Are you talking to us?"

 

 

 

"If I hide in these flowers,

she can't see me!"

 

 

"Mom said if we came after dark

she couldn't see us.....

Boy, was she wrong!"

 

 

My flowers were pretty.....once!

 

Have a Happy Day!



Victory for the Lamb

Happy Easter

He has Risen, Indeed!

 

 

 

Crown Him with Many Crowns

verse 1

Matthew Bridges, 1851

 

Crown Him with Many Crowns,

The Lamb upon His throne;

Hark how the heavenly anthem drowns

All music but it's own.

Awake my soul and sing

Of Him who died for thee

And hail Him as they matchless King

Thro' all Eternity.



Happy New Year 2018

Wow!  It's been awhile since I posted!

 

 

Winter, Snow and Cold Weather

have definitely arrived.

 

The Cardinals add a lot of color.

He thinks he is pretty great,

but she is a beautiful lady.

 

 

 

Sometimes there is a lineup at the feeders,

and there are some who do not like to share their space.

 

 

It was so unusual for me to see

a Red-Headed Woodpecker

at this time of year.

Usually I have only seen them in the Spring.

 

 

This one seemed to have a rather unusual beak.

 



 

This little Downy Woodpecker was getting impatient

for the big Red-Head to leave the feeder.

 

 

The little Carolina Wren seemed to be having

a bad hair day....It was kind of windy!

 

The Nuthatch is such a regular visitor,

I often neglect to take it's picture;

however, it rarely sits still long enough

to have one taken.

 

Yes, indeed, Winter is here!

 

 

 

We're supposed to have a

wind chill of -20 for New Years....Burr!!!



Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day!

Eastern Phoebe

Finally, after many days of rain

the sun is shining

and the Spring Migration

of birds is starting.

 



 

I saw this bird flitting quickly

from trees to bushes, etc.

 

 

It took awhile until it sat still enough

for me to get some pictures.

 

It kind of reminded me of a Tufted Titmouse,

but it seemed too big and not quite the same.

 

After checking my Smithsonian Field Guild

and pictures on the Internet,

I believe it is an Eastern Phoebe,

which is definitely a new bird for me.
