It seems that it is a matter of supply.. they have been unable so far to obtain feed for the feeder that I am asking about. And to add to the frustration of the day, I saw the reply to me, read it, and thought i had forwarded it to my active e-mail address.. guess what.. it didn’t happen. and now I cannot find the reply to respond to the person who wrote me. sigh… time for a coffee break..
Let’s respond clearly. Giving a proper response shows consideration towards others.
I heard this morning that one of the big feeders was totally empty – I has no idea that it was empty, had just come from the location the photographer was telling me about.. and I had noticed. Note to self.. pay attention to all the surrounding feeders. The huge feeder he was telling me about is usually tended to by an organization that has got feeders scattered all over the National Capital Greenbelt …It was when he told me he had sighted an evening grosbeak that I was spurred into action.
A friend was kind enough to dig out his ladder and come fetch me so I could go back to the location and fill the feeder till I can reach someone from the Ottawa Field-Naturalists’ Club, The OFNC was founded back in 1863 and is the oldest natural history club in Canada with over 800 members. I’ve sent a missive but with the holidays it might be some time before I hear back, meanwhile the feeder is now full, hopefully the feed in it will last a few week. I myself am not able to climb a ladder and haul a heavy bag of birdseed up to refill .. fingers crossed everyone.
I was so focused on getting the feeder filled I did not take a picture,… when I go back, weather permitting I’ll remember to get a picture.
It’s Okay to think “this is where it starts” There is always a turning point. It’s important what you do from now.
Little things, mean a lot.. decorations that were lifting today at the church.
Crows.. yes!!! my crows are back….
I delight at spending time with them. I pull up and maybe there is one crow in sight, by the time I’ve turned in and parked…. they have begun to gather. They are not trusting of my big honking Nikon, so I pull out the trusty cell… and get a few snaps in before they wise up to my ruse.
Be very careful about doing things you really like. Do everything in moderation. When you overdo, you’ll lose your balance.
The night was clear – the darkness was inviting – there were few stars in the sky – a stillness lay over the land – she moved with slow deliberate steps, yet her feet barely touched the ground – her movements were almost invisible shadows …the moon’s sliver of silver light highlighted her graceful form as it now picked up speed…. did I imagine her… one minute she was there, and then… … the night was clear. Only a faint scent of a lingering breeze eluded to her having been.
There are days when the you know .. the night hasn’t gone away.. it is waiting in the wings.
till soon

An outdated address book you just don’t want to throw away – it has all the names of friends who have been and now are gone… holds memories some you really can’t remember all that well, while other names bring back chapter and verse of a special time in your life..
A single egg looking very alone, joined an avocado for breakfast, with a side of bacon.
Another day, seems the sun has come out to play. Wonder what adventure will come my way.
Change your mind, thinking “It will be alright” Do the best you can without being overly attached.

Some days just happen. Today when you look, the light frost and snow will be everywhere, give it another hour or two, and……………. who knows what you will find,
I am thinking I might try a slice of dark Christmas fruit cake with a slice of Gouda cheese.
Recently went looking for Santa, in days of “old” at this time of year, people were searching out Christmas cheer. Merchants had their shops brimming with decorations and seasonal goodies, Xmas parades were happening, social get togethers were planned, even the church basements were being decorated for members to enjoy when they gathered for coffee and cake (social hour)
In touring around, I see or saw little of this merriment that once would just have been part of the day. Yes there are homes with decorations, and some of the stores have put up holiday decorations, but I’m not feeling the vibe. “Jolly Santa” and his crew of woodland creatures and elves seem to have faded into “never never land”
Instead of the spirit of the holidays being shared and delighted in, if you turn on the radio or watch the telly, the air is blue, gray and black. Yes there are patches of magic here and there, but it is not everywhere.
A little fantasy is good for everyone.. let’s try to recapture some of the magic of the holidays, in spite of what “some’ would have us think and do.
Make Today a different day. Instead of doing the same old thing, be creative and do things to improve your day.
