Considering we live in the city, I consider us pretty fortunate to be able to look out at a pond, trees, birds, squirrels, rabbits, hedgehogs, and other years we’ve seen deer and a fox. You just never know what you’re going to see.
I know our pond isn’t very deep, because in dry summers I’ve seen ducks stand up in the middle of it. However, it may be a lot deeper than I thought, as here’s what I saw this afternoon:
Does he remind you of anybody famous?
The other birds weren’t cooperating at all today, and so here are a couple of pictures of the tree the birds are SUPPOSED to be in! They must not have gotten the memo that they are a main source of my entertainment.
This tree is prettiest right now. Another day or two, the blossoms will be totally open and appear all white. I love this pretty rose color that they have now. I just don’t understand why all the birds don’t want to hang out in this particular tree! I know I would.
Can’t show any quilting pictures right now. In the works is a customer quilt, our guild’s challenge for this month, our Wednesday group (DayStitchers) started doing our box exchange again this month, and another challenge quilt for a June quilt show. So much secrecy!

i agree! if i were a bird i’d definitely hang out in your crabapple tree, tee hee.
interesting to see that blue heron wading across the pond. our blue heron’s aren’t that brave, but stick close to the shoreline.
I can’t wait to see the Box’s this month since I missed the give out day. Who’s box do you have?
I love looking out my kitchen window also as we have so much wild life here to entertain me. Birds, rabbits, deers, a woodchuck, ducks, chipmunks and a fox the other day.
The birds also help entertain my cats with their activity in the tree by the kitchen french doors. (smile)
It’s fun watching the wildlife no matter where you live. Our bird flocks are growing every day and we’re hoping they stick around and aren’t just passing through. We could ship out a few squirrels and a couple chipmunks. We’ve named one gray squirrel, Chester, as he runs with his one front foot off the ground.
