Birdies

So, Neal and I added a bird feeder near our deck (bringing our total bird feeders to two) and we also added a suet cake cage on a tree in our backyard.

And if you build it (or, stock it with bird seed), they will come. We have birdsĀ  by the dozens outside. And the cats are loving it! They sit at any door/window they can to chatter away at their winged friends.

Neal broke out the 55-200 lens last weekend while I was laid up sick on the couch. He took some pretty cool photos.

Yeah, robins, get those worms!

Funny story, because Neal doesn’t really know his “birds.” He kept saying “Look, there’s an oriole in the yard!” Yes, he was serious. No, I’m not joking.

So, my mother-in-law said that everytime I mention that the weather is getting better, it turns crappy again, so I’m not sure if I should say anything about the weather. I can say that today was AWFUL! It rained all day. Gross, gross, McGrosserson. Blech.

As I said, I haven’t cooked in forever. I did make a whole chicken in the crockpot yesterday and some mashed potatoes, but didn’t take any pictures. I’m also a slacker and didn’t take any pictures of the amazing Easter dinner. I will try to make something fun soon to blog about.
