A Burst of Color on a Dreary Winter’s Day

We’ve had a rather dull start to 2025, from the point of view of the weather: drizzly when not pouring rain, cold but not enough to snow. It makes me long for spring but we’ve quite a ways to go! In the meantime, I… Continue Reading “A Burst of Color on a Dreary Winter’s Day”

Hummingbirds in the Fall Garden

I replenished the feeders a few days ago and have been watching the hummingbirds from a distance ever since. But today I had some work to do outside, so I grabbed my camera and positioned myself incognito in the shed. I think they knew… Continue Reading “Hummingbirds in the Fall Garden”

Hummingbirds through the Window

Due to the cold snap this week, I decided to add additional feeders for the hummingbirds, and that included a new location, the maple tree in front of the house. I don’t know why I didn’t think of it before; they love perching in… Continue Reading “Hummingbirds through the Window”

Happy New Year from the Cats and the Birds!

Today was fresh and green, just like the new year, and I was called into the garden. The cats joined me for a while, Tiger content to inspect and meander, Benji, escaping under the fence. I filled the wheelbarrow with winter debris, then looked… Continue Reading “Happy New Year from the Cats and the Birds!”
