At The Feeder

None of these photos are all that great as they were taken through a window but this is what my feeder looks like these days.   I was thrilled to see the Morning Doves are back, so that has to mean that winter is on the down slide.   Cardinals are my favorites, they are at the feeder throughout the day but in the evening we will have 10-20 feeding, getting a few last bites before night, it is a site to see, I wish I could get some pictures but have never been able to.

Amaryllis

I bought this amaryllis at Dollar General for 3 bucks, I wasn't sure what I would get but I think it was well worth the 3 bucks!

Camera Critter Saturday

I took this picture last summer, a pretty green bug on one of my tiger lilies.

Blog Anniversary

As I read other blogs I see the posts about blog anniversaries.   Well, I missed mine AGAIN, it was January 13th, 2007, but I decided to mention it anyway :), so it has been 3 years and 5 days since I started blogging.  It has proven to be an enjoyable experience, with nothing negative to say about it.  I still love reading other's blogs and get tickled each time I see that someone has made a comment on mine.   I have been online since 1996, at that time I was the exception not the rule, then AOL was the only way online in my community, dial up of course.   I hosted a chat in AOL's The Potting Shed for several years.   Broadband access became available to me in 2000, which made my online experience even better.   I think about all the information we have at our fingertips and how much it has changed our lives, it really is unbelievable.  Anyway thanks to everyone who has stopped by my blog and thanks to all that have made their blogs available to the rest of us.  Keep on blogging!

I decided to share some of roses with everyone, I do love my roses.

Fennel

This photo was taken last November, we had a hard frost, I had pulled up all the dead plants, and this little fennel plant started growing, it is such a brilliant green against the dry leaves.   I plant fennel to attract Black Swallowtail butterflies, I had caterpillars two years in a row but did not have any this past summer, keeping my fingers crossed for next summer.
