Hatch this!

Ok, so one of the fun things about Easter, is that we get to go on a hunt…AND our eggs hatched… I just love soft fluffy little things when they come out of their shells… . . . . . But the really mysterious puzzle has been the alien pod & what it was going […]

Happy Barkin’ Easter

A beautiful, bright sunny day, I just wanted to frolic and play. …..But I’m stuck on my keester …..Just waiting for Easter… Those are BIG eggs for Bunny to lay! . . . . . . Maezi & I are going to have fun opening those…& when she’s not looking, or even when she is…I’m […]

Mocking the Jay bird

Well, Maezi & I were checking out the roses  in the front yard while our Mom was dead-heading them.  (I didn’t know there was such a thing as a rock & roll rose).  Anyway, a big bright Jay swooped right overhead & sat on the rain gutter.  He (I think it might have been Ruder) […]

Remembrance of things past

The nest has sat empty, abandoned & has been taken over by spiders… You can see that the fine grasses were pulled apart so you can see thru the nest layer to the more rustic twigs below. But earlier today, a juvenile Jay came by – checked out the rose bower – & hung around […]

Maezi takes exception to…

We were hanging out in the living room & Maezi heard it before I did – she’s got really good ears.  Have you ever seen her ears?!  She saw a  Jay fly into the nest, but she barked & ran out the dog door to the Predator Preserve, got under the nest & started barking […]

Empty

There is a hole in my heart where 3 little birds should be.  I never heard or saw anything going on in particular.  Everything seemed perfect.  The usual suspects were hanging around the yard.  Jayne, Jayson, Ruder, the occasional Mocking bird, Sparrow, Humming bird – but no noise, nothing. We woke up in the morning […]

I am forlorn

Lost.  Bereft. . They no longer exist.

1,001 Baby Names

. . . Ok, we’re all here – everyone is a-twitter with anticipation.  Jayson’s keeping watch over the hill. . . . . . . . . The nest is a cozy spot for Jayne, who, admittedly, has had to do a lot of the work. . . And then there’s that pesky third bird […]

Ok, still waiting…

I can be patient…but maybe today the eggs will start hatching… Jayne & Jayson seem pretty determined to sit on the nest all the time & I see them “head down” in the nest.  I can tell they’re moving the eggs around – almost like they are inspecting some rare jewels…which, when you think about […]
