I have bluebirds. A house full of baby bluebirds. I am so in love. I put out mealworms for the parents. They appreciate the help in feeding. The house next to the bluebird house has baby chickadee's. Sometimes the father bluebird gets mixed up and tries to go into the wrong house. And then there is chaos. And a lot of chickadee shrilling and flapping of wings. I will try and get one of my bluebird photographs off of my facebook. I hate that all my photographs are on my laptop and never on this desktop. We are going to leave May 7th for Murphy North Carolina (where we were for weeks last Oct looking for our farmhouse) But this time we are not coming back until we bought the farm, so to speak. I may never come back at all. I am sick of no seasons in Florida, sick of heat, sick of no lilac's. Can't even bring myself to plant zinnia's this year. But I see some things like my purple cone flowers coming back anyway. We had flocks of catbirds and Cedar Waxwings stripping our mulberry tree's. My goal on our new farm is to plant way more stuff the birds eat naturally and buy much less sunflower seed. I may even grow sunflowers commercially because the price at the store has skyrocketed. I don't know what's going on. But I need stock in black oil sunflower seeds. So off to farmhouse searching we go. I had my two year followup with the radiologist in Tampa. So far, so good. He said, "I think that after two years, you are out of the woods." But I just live one day at a time and thankful for it. Hope when we get settled in Murphy camping I will have more time for updating this poor blog. Later.
