6.18.12 It’s for the birds! Revisited

18 Jun

From 2.28.12 It’s for the birds!

Look close in the hole of the nesting box.

Yesterday’s post about the Big Tree made me start to think about spring, which appears to be about a month early here in the Mid-Atlantic. I am happy because walking the dogs is easier, and all my feathered friends start to come back in the yard in full color. We sit for hours watching them come to the feeders and the watering spots. I am amazed that, except when the dogs first come racing out of the house to catch squirrels, the birds just stay where they are and do not mind them. We have some wonderful creatures that bless us every day, We get humming birds, and humming bees, butterflies, moths, and skippers.


Can’t wait until the real spring comes. Thanks to K8 once again for the great pics from last year. Just another DogDaz morning at the zoo ❤

    Watching Spring unfurl here in NYC was a wondrous treat this year. Thanks for sharing your treats!

        Yes, and sometimes it seems that it skips us…this year, in spite of the trees budding early, they seemed to take their time opening up – except for the forsythia – my favorite – which seemed to blossom and fade overnight!

        From one New Yorker to another: happy spring! 🙂
