I took the day OFF WORK...Im so looking forward to this 3 day weekend getaway!! I hope to see some birds and if I can hold the camera still long enough I may acutally get a shot of something....
This week the Black n White Warbler returned to my yard...this is not a great shot but its record proof,
And after going 3 rounds with the EVIL bird police over at ebird...I think you better get a shot of EVERY bird you saw in order for them to not hassle you! That little plug I gave them last week I want to UNPLUG...geeze--I was entering my lists from 1995, NO I cant recall the day but I TICKED IT IN RED INK meaning it was a rare sighting, and not a MIS TIC, a savannah sparrow ipswich...they said YOU DIDNT SEE IT, CHANGE IT------you were 50 miles inland....even tho I was on a Bird Club field trip with a renown and seasoned leader who said IT was an ipswich..WELL to make life easier for me, I made my lists private and do you know that corporate bird brain project leader said "Im sorry you don't have confidence in your ID's enough to share with the world." SO I said " well I shared with the world and so far after 3 crappy emails from ebird, its not exactly working for me!"
So here is the tufted titmouse looking so cute with his beady black eyes..
Seems everybody has attitude these days...and then this morning I had to call the satellite company and complain cause the bill went up $4---- again!! SOON it will be costing more than the electric bill....I told them I will have to cancel it if they don't lower the price, they said, pretty much this.
"GO ahead we don't care." We have been with Direct TV since they were PRIMESTAR in the very beginning, so much for loyalty made me feel pretty blue...
SO I guess you can see my week has not exactly been filled with love n kindness....lol to say the least, and then the gas price went up another 4cents before I could get my van up there to fill it up for the trip...Dang!! I wish Wall St, would implode and then the gas prices would stop yoyoing...sometimes the price changes 2 x day.
Before
One of my favorite Hostas that we have in one of my favorite pots!! YOU have to surround yourself with the things you love it makes the cold world a little easier to live in....and you don't feel so adrift...
After
all that powder on the decking is Pollen! I have to wash my van before I leave its been Pollenated for sure..lol---Lemme see what else can I complain about.....IM sure Ill think of something to ruffle my feathers soon as I hit the publish button...meanwhile I hope all of you have a great weekend.
OH yeah, and then there is the divorce Im going thru....
"I'm due a good turn!"
PEACE
