Hello from the hills!
We've already had daytime temperatures in the low 80s so the spring blooms continue popping out all over the yard.
Our cabbages have begun to grow. Of course, the cabbage moths showed up soon after these were planted, but I have an old badminton racket that I use to take care of that problem. o.O
A few days ago I spotted this gorgeous rose breasted grosbeak on the shepherd's hook that holds a feeder in the backyard. It was the first time I'd ever seen one. This is the only picture I was able to manage that day, but ....
I sat down at my kitchen window this morning to watch just in case he returned and was not disappointed.
Such a beautiful bird! He did enjoy some black oil sunflower seeds although the feeder was a bit small for his liking.
I've started crocheting a rug for my kitchen and am taking pictures, but I'm not quite finished with it, yet. I hope to show you all about that in a week or so.
Until then, don't forget to stop and smell the lilacs!
