3.29.12 Open a new window, open a new door….

Nine and Stella are very taken with the activity outside the kitchen window. All my animals seem to love this window, maybe because it is a nice sill to lie on.  The dogs like to look out the windows too, but Sofie really can’t see over the ledge.  I love when we can open the windows but we get this fine green coating of pollen over everything in and outside the house. There use to be a big maple shading that window but we had to take her down last year because of ‘borers’ and lightening damage.  Now the shade garden on that side had to be moved and that side has become a sun garden.  Because all my cats live indoors only, the world outside the windows are something magical.  Nine constantly tries to run out with the dogs, so we are having to be very careful that he does not go galloping out in all the dog excitement.  The cats sit by any door the dogs are outside of and watch.  Windows and doors to the world.  I know there is a metaphor for some great life lesson here, but it is just not coming to mind at the moment.

3.28.12 Down By the River the Osprey Fly

The girls and I went down to the river to try and see if their were any new Osprey babies. Mr. Osprey was not very happy that we were there and circled us angrily.

My Osprey

We have another platform in the neighborhood on top of a telephone pole for another family of Osprey. As the girls and I were walking home past that other platform, one of the parents swooped down with a fish in it’s talons (it looked like a Sunny) and then took off without giving it to the babies (I assume because it saw us).  The babies were peeping like crazy.  That is how we knew they were even there, because that platform is so high up we can’t see into it like we can the water platform.  I wish I was able to take a picture of the Osprey with the fish, but with 2 leashes, the rain, and the speed of the Osprey (the new phone s still hard to handle), I just was not quick enough.

The other night the Osprey were screeching for a long time near mid-night and I never knew why.

I love where I live.  Thank you mother nature for all your gifts.

3.27.12 Spring Has Sprung

The forsythia offer a perfect hideout for dogs who think they can not be seen.  Sofie is silly because she loves to play behind all the bushes and hide from Louise.  She always wonders how Lulu finds her.  Just another dogsdaz morning at the zoo ❤
