Sooooooooo OT, but I have to share......

Sorry about the pics. but yes ist is amazing to drive down the road and see woodstorks, roseate spoonbills and all sorts of big birds I had only seen in Zoos before.. I'm gonna try again with the pics, these are on my feeder

Awesome pics!  I love birds and in May a lot of my favorites will be back!  Baltimore Orioles, Rose Breasted Grossbeaks, Indigo Buntings and Hummingbirds and Eastern Bluebirds. 

They are all doing what we all would like to do in the summer..get out of Florida.. :) And what a lot of other Northerners do... I guess the term "Snowbird" has meaning :) Sorry about your weather, it was 92 here today ..This is a great time of year...and we're on spring break..
Life is hard

Oh Petra,
I can't imagine 92 degrees.  I have a long underwear top on, T-shirt and a sweatshirt on!  And I will turn my electric blanket on when I go to bed.  I'm always cold.   ( my labwork is normal )
Enjoy your weather.  It's supposed to get to 60 by next  weekend, ( when I work ) hahaha
I do have little crocus flowers starting to bloom, so Spring is here.

I guess you can consider yourself fortunate, it is snowing in Kansas!!
Here, it's the Hibiscus and orange blooming and the grass is going from crunchy (no rain) to greener or black (burning)

Petra Im sooooo jealous of you right now 92 degrees !!!!! I woke up to almost 2 inches of dang snow today

we had 70 degree temps last week and now we are back in the high 30's low 40's for all next week *sigh*

This is a great time here...not so much in a few weeks when the humidity kicks in...I do miss regular seasons, but I know I don't get much sympathy complaining about this...I miss snow, but only on Christmas..preferably in big fluffy flakes and it needs to be gone without me having to shovel it...I am not missing that aspect..

 I watched one of those live feed sites for bald eagles a couple of years ago.  Unfortunately, the eggs never hatched :'-(  But, it was still fascinating to watch the day-to-day lives of raptors in the wild. 

We actually have bald eagles here in NW Florida, and I've clutched my dog's leashes a little tighter when they are circling!  (Of course, my cairn terriers would give the eagle a hernia!)
