Bird Watching At The Cottage......

















After a very hard day of raking...cutting...raking...cutting...

We settled into our chairs...with a cold refreshment...around 5pm...

To enjoy the late day sunshine...

And started to watch the show...

I had my camera ready...and had to zoom in on most of these shots...

Everyone was pretty darn hungry...

Even got a shot of a small barn swallow...calling for his mate♥️

We spent the night....pretty chilly...more water problems...

Will tell you all about that later...

But for now...enjoy the birds!

                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hope you all had a great day...

Just started to rain here...and darn windy...AGAIN!!!

A Few Bird Houses.......











Took these last trip to the cottage....

I actually get birds living in these small houses♥

Chickadees......Wrens......Swallows

It is always fun to see if anybody moves in...and sets up house!

                                         ******

Had a much more productive day today...

Got out to the grocery store early, and picked up some Salmon for dinner....

Miss V came before lunch..and had a MUCH needed nap♥

Her Mom picked her up around 3:30...to go and see the Dr...

She got "bit" at daycare on Monday morning...

And the skin was broken, and it is quite red and sore looking....:o(

Better safe then sorry.....

                                      ******

She helped and watched while I put together 3 cakes...

Blueberry Buttermilk Breakfast cake...

Lemon Banana Raspberry Loaf...

Lemon Banana apple-cinnamon loaf...

             They all turned out beautifully♥

And the house smells divine......

And...I made a big pan of Fried Rice....to go with our Salmon....

                                     ******

Hope you all had a great day....

Dreary today...damp...chilly...cold!

Got out to the backyard, and put a few more lights out there....
