First birds

 Went to Kensington yesterday for the first time this year to maybe have some bird landings.  The trees and foliage are mostly bare as you can see.  Judy and Marie had a pretty good outing with  about two dozen feeders landing in the pile of seeds they are holding.  The park is still pretty brown and muddy at this point.  Due to spring breaks for the students, the place was quite full.

There was a good population of doves and one sandhill crane.  Only these little guys will light on a human hand.   


Eli and Marie spent the night with us.  He is up on his computer and she is still snoozing away.  His bowling league had a fundraiser at Culver's in Waterford yesterday with the young members delivering food to the tables of hungry customers.  I got something to eat and my little deliverer was a pretty girl about 10 years old with a sparkling smile and a twinkle in her eye.  All had a good time and got their first experiences at a job.  By the way, the food was not bad.  My fish sandwich looked like the TV commercial and was tasty.The director of the league got them all ice cream at the end, I'm sure to their delight

Harry and Judy are not up yet and I am wearing her patterned fleece jacket with my plaid flannel bottoms,  looking quite mismatched ready to take Harry for his morning constitutional.

all for now 

stay safe
