A Recipe for Happiness

Pull it out of the ground.



Swallow it whole. Yum.


Then just perch in a tree and sing about it.


PS. I finished my Scavenger Hunt. Please take a quick look and go vote for me.
(After you wipe that silly grin off your face. Puuulllleeeeze, I need at least one vote.....! )

Is that the first red robin of Spring, or do they stay at your place all year 'round?

I agree to perch somewhere high, but no way that I swallow a worm even if it makes me happy !

I don't believe I will follow that recipe.

At least ... not with that particular entree.

i love robins. they seem so simple, whereas a bird like a hawk is so complicated, conniving, sneaky. robins just 'hop, pull, eat' hop,, hop.. and that's it. its like life is telling us time and again to slow down, be simple, drink some lemonade and not worry.

It's the one thing I love on the acreage here and that's watching the Robins. After the rain they are out there digging and looking for worms and when they find one I have to laugh sometimes when it's a really long one and they are tugging and tugging away on it. They're mean though. They will fight with the Blue Jays and they win every single time.

The last picture could be a poster. You've captured four intersecting worlds with incredible depth, color and precision.

An Old Cold Spot

Image
My brother Mike emailed me this photo last night.  He said this was a goodbye salute that he snapped today in his garage where this old freezer has been chugging away since 1988.  That was the year our mama decided she was tired of bending over and digging through it.  Besides, she no longer needed the capacity and hadn't for several years. Mike and my sister-in-law  spent the next 25 years "digging" through this old freezer.  My sis-in-law was very good at keeping it and the cupboards stocked.  The two of them kept promising each other that "It is going to die soon, so we will just keep it until that day." Twenty-five years may seem like a very long life for a freezer.  It is MUCH older than that. Sears only sold Coldspot through 1976.  I thought that my parent's purchased this freezer in the sixties.  My brother said he put the serial number 'on-line' and it matched a 1953 manufacturing date.   Here is a close up of the make and model that

Apparitions in my Garden

Karmyn is the host of Fun Monday this week with a subject that is near and dear to her heart. Not to mention her knees and fingers. But I mentioned them anyway. The subject? --- What's Growing In Your Garden. As soon as I signed up I grabbed my camera and headed out the back door. Alyssum, lady's mantle, gaillardia, Jupiter beard, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember is blooming in this photo. We didn't put as many annuals in this year so I miss all the yellows and reds that we often enjoy. But, something else showed up in that surprised me. Can it be that my yard is haunted? Cheeky little ghost! A shot from the deck near the hammock shows off some ornamental grass, petunias, pond plants ... and that bold apparitio

Bird Voyeur

The sweet little digital camera that the hubby purchased (after I dropped our old one) has encouraged me to do a little more walking. Last week I took it with me when I walked up the "creek" path, which doubles for joggers and bikers as well. I've seen beavers, mink, deer, birds, birds, birds, and once the tail end of a bear run running away through the brush. Of course, without a camera. Now I carry it often. This time I was watching the Belted King Fisher performing an acrobatic display and chattering at the ducks and geese in his fishing territory. I was zooming in on him in a tree across the water when I spotted what I thought was a huge wasp or hornet nest very high in the tree. (Thanks to Susan for bringing up bee's today.) The heavy binoculars were at home, so I continued to try to see it through my camera. Then, a weird movement caught my eye. What I thought was a giant paper wasp nest was really a Great Blue Heron sleeping on one leg with his head ben
