This weekend we had blue skies, and rainbows, and snowfall, and hail!
Friday's rainbow
This hawk took advantage of a spot of sun on Friday...
...to extend his wings...
...and dry them out while basking in the sunshine.
The quail were happy to see a spot of sun too.
And here's a true harbinger of Springtime - A Bluebird!
The last couple of years, we've had a Bluebird or two scout out housing locations. But thus far nothing has met with their approval, and they've move on to nest elsewhere. (Darn it!)
Sunday morning gifted us with snow showers from 6:00am-10:00am.
The Song Sparrow was less than pleased with the weather change.
The quail were none-to-happy as well.
Brrr!
While the snow did not stick on the valley floor, it did decorate the Spencer;s Butte and Coburg Hills.
Good guesses on my "Mystery Bird", but nope, it is not a dove. I've not been able to take a close-up yet of the bird - when I do I'll be sure and mention that it was the Mystery Bird.
The beautiful blue sky shows the hawk off just perfectly.
ReplyDeleteAll those new fabrics are gorgeous - love the colors! As for the snow -I'm with the birds, enough already. We've been blessed with warm weather waaaayy earlier than usual and no one is complaining-- hope the week gets warmer!
ReplyDeleteOh wow -- love all that fabric!! Yum! Looking forward to seeing the projects on them! Your pics are beautiful. I've always wanted to visit Oregon. Never been. Such a beautiful area!
ReplyDeleteLove your new linens! And, as usual, the bird photos are wonderful. I don't think I have ever seen a bluebird. It was so pretty. I also found the quail very interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a crazy weather weekend!! And it was 85 here Saturday and Sunday (and today....)
ReplyDeleteI love the light shining through the hawk's tail as he is sunning! What a cool thing to see.
Have fun with the new stash. =)
Beautiful fabric! Love the pictures of the hawk! Hawks are such regal birds, I love watching the two we have around my house!
