Birds N Things

Howdy!!!! I hope wherever you are, that the morning is a beutiful sunny morning for you. Some of my Northern friends are still dealing with the aftermath of snow and cold days, but they too are starting to enjoy the beginnings of Spring. One friend sent me beautiful pictures of Anemonies blooming outside her front door. She had me wishing I had some too LOL.

Recently we hung Sidney's bird house up in the tree near the front porch. Dillard hung it so the entrance faced our house, and we have been able to keep an eye on it to see if any birds would like to call it home. Many times it takes a year or more before some bird family decides to move in. We didn't paint it or embellish it in anyway. And wonder of wonders. A bluebird family seems to have decided on it. It's a little soon to know for sure, but a Mama bird was checking it out yesterday morning, while Dad waited on a nearby limb. Never did we expect to see Bluebirds!!!! The house wasn't really designed for Bluebirds in mind. The entrance hole is a little bigger than what Bluebird house plans call for. It's also hanging instead of being anchored to a post. So it really shouldn't have been a consideration for Bluebirds LOL. The male is even now perched on the small rod fastened to the entrance! While a feeder is nearby, they don't eat birdseed. They prefer insects or meal worms. How awesome if they decide to make it their home! If it works out, I will be able to sit on the front porch with my camera and get some shots. Right now it looks like two pairs of birds are now fighting over the house!!!! They are chasing each other around the yard and twittering noisily. I also noticed a cowbird near the feeder. I will have to keep a close eye on them. Cowbirds do nto build a nest. Ever. They wait until another bird has a nest with eggs, knock those out of the nest, and lay their own to be raised by the other birds. They are very parasitic in nature, and I don't like them at all.

Some of my newly planted seeds are showing. I decided to try carrots and Israeli Melons this year. They are finally showing!!!! No sign of the tomato seeds yet, but if the birds didn't get them they should be showing soon.

I have been busy learning a lot about using PSP and making sigtags. My time is so limited and I have to choose whether to maintain my sites, or be creative LOL. So far PSP has been winning! So once again, I am seriously thinking about deleting this site and my other site at Blogger.

I hope all goes well for each and everyone of you. Be blessed and I will try to get back soon. I have joined yet a thrid group involved in PSP. So my time here will be even shorter than it already is.
