Enjoying the Beauty Around Me ~ May, 15, 2016

Hello Friends!

Here's a glimpse of what's been going on in my yard these days. 

I'm happy to report that the wrens have moved back into their home. ☺

Just within the last week, our Baltimore Orioles and Hummingbirds have returned. Makes my heart so happy. The Orioles have really increased in number this year!

Still struggling with up and down weather, but I hear that this weekend should surely be the last of it. Phew!! I'm so looking forward to all that Spring and Summer has to offer, aren't you?






It's been wonderful to enjoy some previous days of sunshine and warmth. I've started mowing the lawn again, and got all my flowerbeds covered over with new chips.

Any day now I'll be going to get some lovely, colorful annuals to plant in my flowerbeds and pots.

Wishing you happy days and lots of sunshine!


A Goldfinch And Its Young

Although I've had many Goldfinches to my feeder over the years, I have never had the opportunity to see one that I could recognize as a youngster. I think that would be so neat to catch a glimpse of one someday!

Goldfinches

The Goldfinches have started visiting the feeder I put out for them. I love when a male perches on my fence and sings a sweet song for me!
