Morning Dove

Posted by Picasa

We have had 6 Morning Doves that sit for a couple of hours each sunny morning in the highest branches of our maple tree, I love the cooing sound they make and their beautiful blue eyeliner. 

We lost lots of snow today and I saw my 1st robin!   Spring has to get here soon.

Life has been getting in the way of my blogging lately.   It has been warmer and our snow is now a dirty muddy mess, I can actually see part of our back yard, the dogs come in with muddy paws several times a day, we were actually able to take them for a walk this past weekend, the ice is finally gone from out streets.  It is cloudy, dreary and gray with drizzle and rain predicated for the next week, we have flood warnings, the Cedar River is expected to crest on Sunday, after 2008 the word "flood" makes me really nervous.

The photo above is a cleome that I played around with in PSP.  I love doing that, must be the frustrated artist in me, since I can't draw.
