Oh my , we finally have spring and this weekend was awesome . Not a cloud in the sky , plenty of sunshine and the temps both days hit a high of 18C or 64F and the breezes were even warm .
Papa ,Miggs and myself were outside all weekend puttering , tiding up the yard the gardens and getting things like the tractor’s out and running checking them over getting them ready for the season , getting our garden hoses hooked up , having campfires and Chiminea fires going and setting up my little bird fountain and just soaking all the wonderful weather in . Our Brown Thrasher birds returned today , love hearing them chit chat and the Tree Swallows and Purple Martins returned yesterday and usually the Barn Swallows follow shortly after , I love the return of our warmer weather birdies . All our trees have buds on them as do our shrubs and bushes and our spring flowers are close to blooming .
I will share some of the many photos I took over the weekend .
Of course lots of these photos are of birdies lol since they are all so active now in the yard .
This little Junco above will be leaving us soon , I wish they stayed here over the warmer months !
Little Chickadee below was busy cracking open a seed and just ignored me lol !
Miggs has been doing well and loving the weather to but here she is tired from following Papa and I about all day supervising .
There were lots of sticks and branches about the yard from the winds we had from a week ago and after I raked them all up I put them into the fire pit and had my first campfire of the season .
So that was just some picks I took of our wonderful spring weekend , the spring weather that we have been waiting for . The rest of the week is to be warm to and sunny for the most part but will have a day or two of showers but that's ok it helps with the May flowers lol !
A photo of the moon in the west I took Sunday evening to end this wonderful weekend we had . As I stood there taking this photo the peppers were singing in the darkness of the evening as their sound echoed through out the valley as a perfect ending to what was a lovely weekend.
Until next time

Hello, sweet birds and photos. I love your Miggs, she is adorable. Pretty capture of the moon. Happy Monday, enjoy your day and new week!
Yes, it was. People were out and about for the first time in about 5 months.
Lovely birds!
It's warmed up here as well.
Finally, it has been nice enough to be outside. The birds were singing away most of the day.
Enjoy Elaine!
Cheers!
Linda :o)
