Family time

SAY CHEESE!!!

Just a couple of my family pics. My brother was in town so we got together. Mom in the middle.

My Uncle here in the middle has survived with cancer, so it was a real joy to get to see him!!!!

Oh and yes my Dad is a twin... My dad is the one in the red shirt.

Also the Sage is blooming everywhere here. Mine did wonderfully as well.

My new friends

My new friends.














I have been trying to draw in different types of birds in my yard. Two years in a row I have had a mother mourning dove hatch 2 babies each year. So I have put bird seed out just to have them come back. Now I am getting the usual house finch. I also have 2 barn swallows coming under the porch cover to get out of the sun. The picture I have is kinda of a blurr. The most interesting is the red headed bird that is coming. It looks kind of like a female cardinal or a red headed finch.
It was really hard to take their picture. It was almost like they knew I was taking their picture and just trying to give me a hard time!. I wished the picture was more clear, this bird is really pretty.



























Here is my house finch that keeps returning with the red one and a couple of other friends.








Thats how I spent my time off .... watching birds and fish!!!
