 while Mother Nature and Jack Frost are rearing their ugly heads...
I count down to spring...
I love looking back at all the beauty...on ugly weather days it
cheers me up.... 

 I plant as many flowers as I can that attract butterflies and bees...
Pawpaw taught Stringbean how to catch bees in jar without getting
stung..Stringbean is a great butterfly catcher...
One day he caught and released nearly 30 butterflies...
he has also become a lizard...grass snake and frog catcher....



today as I looked out my office window...
I saw a male cardinal...a female cardinal...
a blue jay...of course when I took my camera outside...
they all vanished...
they made me smile...
the squirrels were running around like crazy today...
I think they were enjoying the warmer temperatures...
it got 48 today....so much better than the 20's...
hopefully this cold snap killed of some mosquitos and flies...

this week has gone by fast....
I've had to look at my calendar to see what day it is....
it's hard to get back to normal after the holidays....

Happy Thursday...

Boy I hope you're right about the cold snap killing some mosquitoes. With the rain and standing water we've had down here.
I had to laugh when you said you grabbed your camera to go snap pictures of the birds and they had disappeared. That happens to me every time.
Happy New Year
