Perfectly Lovely

Chas · December 29, 2009 ·

Good Morning Dear Ones! Happy Tuesday to you all!  I pray that this day will hold many wonderful delights for each one of you.
The picture above is a fruit salad the girls and I made the other night after supper… of course I thought it was pretty and had to take a picture and Shannon laughed at me! I guess my constant picture taking of things is a bit funny.
Speaking of pictures… you must go check out my flickr badge on the right side of my blog… it has some of our latest bird finds on there… Yesterday we spent a good part of the morning watching and identifying the birds we have visit us at Bird Central, and then we looked up more information about them.  It was spontaneous learning at its best!!!
Here are a couple of our favorites…
This is one of our friends, the Tufted Titmouse Eli is crazy about this little bird! He talks about it constantly.  It grows to about 6″ and is a close cousin to the Carolina Chickadee. The call of the Tufted Titmouse is a loud sound that says “peter, peter, peter”
Cameo’s favorite is the Northern Cardinal. She loves the vibrant red color. The Cardinal grows to about 8″ or 9″.  When they are courting the male will feed the female… how neat is that? The call sounds like “cheer, cheer, cheer, what, what, what”
Isn’t it GORGEOUS??? <~Insert Steve Irwin’s voice here~
(side note… did any of you cry when he died? oh my, it broke my heart)

Have a great day my friends!
My Cup Runneth Over…
