Springtime And A Guest!

 It is surely if slowly getting to be spring in our area…A whole week without snow! We even had some sunny days. But as this is being written, we have a rainy day. Oh well, the flowers to be need it! And while petcretary was at her work, it SNOWED! Huge fluffy flakes swirling in the strong winds we were having…but at least it all melted as it hit the ground…too warm at ground level. Sheesh…But when she was on her way home, it was very clear and she could see all the stars and visible planets.

On Friday, petcretary saw this dude checking out our feeders…an uncommon and rare sight around here, they prefer the real woods…

This is a Pileated Woodpecker, aka Woody’! Sorry for the poor quality, it was taken through a screened window…and then he was gone!

Other signs of spring in our yard:

Tulips
Snowdrops
Perwinkle Purple! That works for The Annual Purple Day for Epilepsy This is hosted each year as a blog hop by 5 Sibs.
Taken at 1030pm, so the lighting did strange things to Benji…
Looks much better in Black and White!

Dalton found some daffodils trying to show up…the background was very messy, so we took it out, but now we cannot enlarge it for you…or even caption it. Likely a blogger glitch, BOL!

Now you can see the daffodils, and I, Dalton thought I looked good in a mountainous region…BOL!
We are springing and hopping in the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop, hosted by The Cat On My Head. Thanks Kitties Blue!

  1. Wonderful selfies of Benji AND Mother Nature as well. We see those big piliated woodpeckers frequently – they find plenty of dead wood in our woods for “pecking” !!

    Hugs, Teddy

  2. Hey Dalton, that’s a good selfie. And Woody’s very interesting to see, but are glad we can’t hear him, BOL! Spring really has to be on its way soon. The weather’s gotten warmer here (70’s) and we’ve had the spring showers. We (especially Mom) hope the really cold weather’s over. XOX Xena, Lucy, Chia and Riley
