Good morning !!

In my humble opinion, life would be so boring if I didn’t have my yard!! Yesterday I learned something new: I identified the Northern Mockingbird. It has frequently been at the Bluebird mealworm feeder so I belatedly checked my several charts…. ~~ A variety of birds visit the feeders and almost all are welcome. “Hey Mockingbird, stay off the Bluebird feeder!!”

Hummingbirds always welcome in my yard.

Sunshine is glistening off the stained glass wreath hanging in the window close to where I sit at my computer. Time to position the ladder and wash the windows?!

Yesterday, a man–temporarily in the RV Park–walking his dog, “discovered” my yard. He enthusiastically said “Oh what a lovely garden.” I thanked him and replied “Most people say ‘Oh, how cluttered’.” Today I set up another Shepherd’s Hook (from North Carolina) for the bird bath. The “Water Wiggler” keeps the water moving so it won’t stagnate. ~~ Nothing strenuous today: The Lord’s Day, a day of rest.

“Good afternoon” too!! Primarily, mental exercise. I’m always looking for a way to use the garden items I have accumulated. Shepherd Hooks were expensive (in North Carolina) but where to put them has been illusive. Then, in my mind’s eye, I saw how I could configure a second hook with the one installed earlier. ~~ If birds do not come to the bird bath (too close to the trailer?), I can hang wind chimes.
