Mark split the tree and carved out a place for the birds to make a nest. He built a log cabin birdhouse, too. 5/3/24
I love seeing the blue birds perched in the trees. They never visit the bird feeder. They drop to the ground for their food and food for the babies. 5/5/24
I bought a bigger block of seeds and fruit with red pepper to detract the squirrels. Someone forgot to give this squirrel the memo! He still did not touch the seed from the bird feeder. I’m thinking the block from Walmart did not have very much red pepper included. 5/9/24
Jessica, Araya and Jennifer came in to spend Mother’s Day weekend with us. We attended a banquet at Elisabeth’s church. with Hannah and Abby, too. 5/11/24
