There may be a chance for significant snow this Sunday…maybe winter was just running late this year.

Saturday afternoon in the backyard….
Headaches have been plaguing me in the mornings. I rarely get them…lately more often than normal. Could be from all the weather fronts moving through…high pressure….low pressure….and of course, work pressure. Throw in a cup of family illness…stir and bake overnight. A relatively easy day today….Saturday afternoon in the backyard…

Sometimes
Sometimes you don’t know what to do…so you do what you love…because it comes naturally. I know why the caged bird sings, ah me, When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,– When he beats his bars and he would be free; It is not a carol of joy or glee, But a prayer that he sends from his heart’s deep core, But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings– I know why the caged bird sings! ~ Excerpt from Sympathy by Paul Laurence Dunbar

Waiting For Dinner
Yesterday I heard a constant bird chirping outside the kitchen window so I went to investigate. Sometimes it is a cat lurking about and the birds are sounding the alarm. This time someone was letting me know I needed to fill the bird feeder…. My camera was close by so as the bird sang her song I grabbed it and took a couple of shots.

Not too bad actually…and how cute is she posing for me? I did go out and…

Feeding
At the height of the snow storm this past Saturday (December 26th), I piled up pillows, grabbed a blanket and made a comfortable spot for myself on the couch and watched out my window for visitors to a seed bell I had hanging in my red maple tree. This is a series of photos I took of a cardinal feeding. Unfortunately the photographs are shot through the window and a screen so they are not tack sharp….but I liked them anyway. I am seriously considering removing the screen from that window though…just in case. 🙂

Outside My Window ~ 12.26.10
Outside My Window…snow, snow and more snow! What began as a White Christmas yesterday afternoon has turned into quite an event today. It has been snowing since about 3:30 yesterday but very hard since early this morning. It looks as if the neighborhood trees have all been flocked with several inches of powdery, white snow. I can’t see my front steps…it is quite deep outside. The Weather Channel estimates we have about 6 1/2 inches right now ~ I think locally there may be more around here. I do live in the rain/snow/ice belt of the peninsula so that is a possibility. When I say I live in the rain/snow/ice belt it means…
