Good Morning

Saturday ~ January 03, 2015

Linda ~ Pileated Woodpecker, RTH, Belted Kingfisher, & a zillion Snow Geese.

Yep, Carolyn, got my peas & all the trimmings after Terry brought my car home.
Invited Terry & Nate for New Year's Day dinner and they came.
Lana did a beautiful job on your paintings.
Hummm, Judy ~ Thought we each set our own number of posts per page in our Account Settings under Forum Preferences. :confused:
I set mine (as per PatB's suggestion under “Forum Index” ~ “Some Helpful Hints”) when I first joined and they have not changed...I get 20 posts per page.
This is what mine looks like...



Nice s'caps from the SW Florida cam.
In case you missed it...found this on the “noisy birds” you mentioned...



They are Starlings...according SWF cam post on FB.

Texie ~ Sure hope the puter pecialist won't need to keep your Laptop for 2-3 weeks...is it being shipped to Siberia?
Sal & I missed you last night...but we smiled knowing you & Trudy were having some Fun Sister Time together.

elle~elle ~ @ “I made sure Ian got that one.”
Haven't seen the Pauraque here and was expecting another bird when I clicked on Gelada...well, I'll be darned if it wasn't Grody I saw.
You have a nice sunny day today...would be wonderful to see Ma & Pa Sidney.


Doree ~ Hope that snow/sleet held off til you were safely home from work, GF...know I do not like driving in those conditions.
Pray all goes well with your doctor's appointment Monday.
The kitties will come to know all your likes & dislikes...soon, I hope.

Sweet Silver

That's exactly the kind of snow I like, Scootie.
Love the Wood Lily...will watch Lily climbing tree after posting...
Did the unthinkable (for me) thingy this morning...turned over and went back to sleep until after sunrise so am running late starting my new day and that's a .
Need to shift to high gear and get a move on...

Sending to everyone...

Good Morning.....

There is so much whirling I will just post what I can remember!

Judi, sorry about their house. That sort of thing is unfair. I am glad Jean explained about number of posts set by each one of us, not the thread.

Jean, sounds like a fun time you had with family.

TX, hope your computer comes back sometime(ish)......

Elle, I think us Texans are too far North for that bird....maybe more South. Texas is big! That was the first lesson I learned when moving here. Alaska is bigger.
Your trip sounds lovely. On the whales, yes, the same whales. So, say Hi to the ones I saw for me - yes, I know they could be in a different part of Hawaii, but Maui was mentioned by the guide.

Scott, love your photos and that goes for you to Linda!

Doreen, I am highly relieved you have had your last smoke. Phew! You kitties are so lucky to have you (and you them).

Hi to everyone!
Rain again, but looking brighter,
smiles,
carolyn

SWF nest...live action...in progress as I post...

1 let dining outside nest bowl.



Both lets dining outside nest bowl.



And...someone wasn't ready to go bedie-bye.

Carolyn: Maui is the place to see the Humpbacks. They are gone by mid April so we will be there early enough to see them and their babies! Last time we went was in April and we did see a few but not a lot. One was breaching off shore but it was quite far out. When we were in Kauai it was February and there were no whales there.
I will definitely wave to them from you.
Overcast , dry and calm. Hmm. ?
There is a big storm warning for all of Canada from BC east but it is just missing Vancouver Island. We have much warmer temps forecast for the coming week.

okay thanks Jean didn't know I could adjust that number myself 15 a page makes for less pages I like that ...I also see North Texas got a bitter cold spell last night ...I saw it on the news....you guys are getting Canadian weather

same for Doreen ....lots of snow in New Hampshire and where Linda is from....how is it your way Carolyn as they say Texas is getting frigid weather vortex?

hope you get your computer back on line and working soon Texas

Was suppose to snow here but hasn't started yet Elle just

I heard your state had lots of snow One thing I hope your cold is getting better Doreen get lots of rest if you have to work and bundle up.....I was thinking do you think you are allergic to the cats as you got sick right after you got them.....you've had feathers around with your birds but cat dander is something different should check into that my friend

Wow hows Ian's digestive tract Elle I won't tell.....

I sent them lots of 2 to 3 bedroom ads yesterday because they only have 2 months and here in the lower mainland rentals go so fast if they are nice...clean and big and reasonable

Yes Jean when we get flocks of
Starlings here they land in our front yard and eat all the worms and grubs in the grass....so I chase them away or they will clean my yard of all plants and living things
great scapes of the Florida bobbles eating so darned cute at that age

Hi All and Good Night....

Judi, it's cold here, but not terribly. In high 40's about there. We have had a ton of rain.

Judi - Doreen said she got sick from work as so much goes around there. I can understand that going in and out of a nursing home with Bleu. If the halls have a lot of sickness we are told not to go in.
I don't think the kitties would cause that. And....there is something to put on kitties for dander which negate it - Dander remover (cheap, lasts forever, apply once a week).
I use it when my son is coming. He now has two long haired kitties so he is used to them now...before he had one short haired oriental.

I am glad Elle you are going to see my whales that I saw in Sitka. That was so special, I kind of grew attached to them.
sweet dreams,
carolyn

Nice s'caps of the starlings around the eagle nest & dinnertime for the 'lets Jean.
They can be a little noisy, but very entertaining as well.
"...well, I'll be darned if it wasn't Grody I saw."
Don't you know you are not supposed to get up before the sun does! (That does explain why our paths cross on occasion at that time of the morning though.)

Carolyn, elle, & Judi

Snow! - UPDATE January 3, 2015

Red Squirrel in snow
