Spring Is In the Air
Well! It is Spring! We awoke this morning around 7a.m. MDT to find a couple of young deer shaking, raiding the hanging bird feeder I had hung at the top of the slope in my backyard, North of Bayfield, Colorado.
Yes! I did get a picture of the one of the two culprits. The birds that had been feeding from it yesterday were nowhere to be found during Sunday's early morning feeding schedule. Just two young deer shaking the contents from the bird feeder and eating what fell to the ground.
Our son sent me a photo above of the crab apple trees blooming in my yard on the corner of 11th & Maple Street, in Alva, Oklahoma. I hear tell the fruitless pear trees bloomed a few weeks ago just before the spring freeze went through NW Oklahoma. AND ... This week our 40+ year old Lilac bush in our backyard in Alva, Oklahoma has new Spring buds popping out all over.
