More birds, no cats, and signs of spring.
I shot this from my truck while waiting for my wife at Giant Tiger and Shoppers City East. You see this every once in a while and there's no clear explanation for it. If you Google "shoes hanging from wires" you'll find a whole bunch of theories. One blogger pretty much summed it up: "So there you have it. It's either a harmless prank, a rite of passage, or a sign of the end of civilization. You figure it out." :)
The finches are becoming more and more trusting. Yes, there's a pane of glass between where I stand and the feeder, but they hardly pay any attention to me now when I walk up to the window to watch or photograph them.
The finches were out in full force this weekend, and emptied the feeder twice. I tried to catch them in flight coming and going.
No flowers yet, but the lily bulbs began sprouting in the last two weeks.
The peonies have sprouted and reach for the sun.
Stop. Click the photo if you don't know what it is.
A sure sign of spring at our house; I put our patio table and chairs out on our small front patio. All it needs is a nice cold beer sitting on it. :)
