I'll talk about the Valentine Day Cards in more detail on a post on the 14th of the month. 


Ahhhh!  February sunshine!  
It is to be enjoyed to the utmost.

This Sharp-shinned Hawk was omnipresent the other day.

Which meant little to no action at my bird feeders.

Wisely as it turns out the hawk alighted atop one of the feeders.
That's a bit bold!

With milder weather the Robins are back in force.

The chickadees flit to the feeders, take a sunflower seed, and flit right back to the safety of a tree or brushy cover.

  8. Wow, you are so lucky to valentine cards that your grandmother gave to your grandfather.

    Can't wait to see some robins around here again.

    I'm like your kitty, soak up as much sun as I can, except I don't get to take a nap while I'm doing it, lol.
