Resting...


 

I worked Tuesday and because I still have a cold, I pretty much sacked out when we got back home. Sorry I missed a post for yesterday. 

I spent part of the day at the computer, but my head really wasn't in it. I did prep a package to mail out one of the brooches that was purchased, but I mostly rested. 

Andy brought more hickory nutshells down from the fall harvest, so hickory syrup will definitely be in my future. That's for another day though.

While im sitting here conserving energy, all the birds that flew south for the winter are making their way back north. I want to be ready for them, so im planning to scrub all the feeders this week. The temps will reach into the sixties, so it's the perfect time to get ready for their return. 

Im also going to buy a couple new birdhouses for the bluebirds, and one or two wren houses. I think the Compass Barn could use one or two on the east wall. I want to have a nice welcome buffet for them when they arrive.

I'll be back at the computer today, too. I want to activate my sale by the weekend. Coffee and computer. See you later!

  1. I think resting and dreaming of / preparing for the warmer weather and return of our feathered friends is very good for your health 😊 Wishing you well as you pull together your sale in time for the weekend!

  2. It's ok that you didn't post, you need rest.
    I have not seen many birds yet, only Canadian Geese & a few Common Mergansers in the river.
    Maybe by next week when it gets warmer, we will se some Pelicans & other Ducks.
    I love to watch them, so interesting.

  3. I hope the birdies don't rush their way north because it will be a pretty cold outlook for them just yet. The river outside our building is open so at least the geese and ducks will have somewhere to go but I don't know how much they'll find to eat.
    Hope you soon feel better!!

  4. The Grackles and Starlings have been here for a good week (by the hundreds).
    I feed year round so there is always a lot of activity.
