We were pleasantly surprised to find today that the birds have returned in bunches!



But as I looked closer, I saw a bird that I hadn't seen before!



R said it's a Starling!



This makes 20 different kinds of birds we've seen over the years come to the feeders at our cabin!



We saw 2 starlings at the same time!

AWESOME Cam! Thank you for sharing these! I haven't seen many birds lately out here in Shay, however, I know they are out there In the Summer I think they all congregate at my Big Tree in the lot as it sounds like a full sized band playing outside

WINTER IS OVER AND SUMMER IS ALMOST HERE!

So beautiful! I love the one of the Starling in the snow.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me alone.

That's because they are all in my yard eating out of my feeders! I have even seen hummingbirds coming around to check out the spots I usually hang the hummingbird feeders, and I don't even have those out yet!

do it beanie! the birds have a hard time finding food when the ground is covered in snow!

What doesn't kill me does NOT make me stronger. It makes me anxious, bitchy, and vulnerable...but nobody wants to see that embroidered on a pillow...Lisa Kogan...thx LXL...sorry i stole it from you! Ok, maybe I'm not sorry :-P

So lets see- kids were in a tree building a fort, dropped a hammer, hit Goat in the face which caused him to crash into a camp fire where they were making fajitas thus burning his hand and getting fajita all over his shirt! Does that explain it?

I got hit in the face with a hammer, crashed hard on Cougar Crest and burned a finger and threw fajitas on my shirt. Shall I continue?
