Yesterday morning...
We spent much of yesterday at a maple sugar shack filling our faces with home-made pancakes and pure liquid gold syrup. And fresh-brewed coffee.
We took our grandittle along.
And Pearl, the lamb, came, too.
Checking out the chickadees
We had a fun time just being together.
I want to plan our garden, pot some seeds and do some out-door spring cleaning. But that will have to wait.
Instead it is a good day to stock up on wood pellets and bird seed and maybe eat cake.
I filled the feeders again as there has been no sight of Mr. Hawk for awhile. I also gave them this concoction of apple cores from my baking, crackers and nuts. Red appeared out of nowhere and chatted with me while I dished it out.
I think I was being scolded for being too slow.
I just love this little guy.
I wish I could hug him.
Wouldn't you want to hold this darling critter?
ok - I'll stop.
Cabin-fever is an unwelcomed side-effect to early spring in Ontario. And impatience. I.want.flowers.
But, since the sun came out, I'm heading out for an hour walk.
Maybe I'll see how the wild turkey's are getting along as they make their way to local bird feeders and gorge like some of my distant relatives might at an all-you-can-eat buffet. They're pretty funny to watch. The turkeys, that is.
Enjoy your evening.
Good NewsUpdate on Sylvester (the lonely cat from my previous post)...I contacted the rescue today to see how he is doing. He has had his wounds attended to and has been neutered. He is being well taken care of at Country Cat Rescue while he recovers. The ladies there say he is a sweet fellow and just needs time to learn to trust again. They will give him lots of love there while he waits for his forever, loving home.
hugs, Deb
I'll spare you listening to me whining about the dumping of snow we had that never stopped for two days.
I don't even care anymore because I can smell the two
apple cakes
that are baking in the oven right now.
Heavenly!
I make two...
one for us and one to give away.
Now if only you all lived closer.
