Suds and Songs!
The picture on the left is a female Downy woodpecker and on the right is male Hairy woodpecker with what I believe is a a female American Goldfinch on the thistle feeder. My latest attempt to bring you my feathered visitors.
I stood on the front porch this afternoon and smiled a big All Right! The thermometer in the corner was reading a whopping 52 degrees. The sun is shining through both the bay window in the living room and the French doors in the dining area. The furries are sleeping in the warmth on the carpet and this momma is listening to all three of the Rod Stewart CDs on the Bose. I find my self singing along because I know all the words and this was the music I grew up with as a child. Yes big band, slow stuff, but romantic as the devil and I love it right along with the 50s, 60s, 70s up to some of today’s music. So I sit here swaying to the sounds that remind me of standing at the kitchen sink, soap suds up to my elbows, singing harmony with my Mom to these very tunes.
