My wife grabbed these images when she left for work. She got in the car and the cardinals came around to see her off. When she got home there were a few more. She opened the garage door and one flew inside and perched on a shelf. She texted me from the car to look… Continue reading More Cardinals
I think the birds like this setup. They have cover in the trees and can see the feeder that is directly above the center of the garage door out of frame to the right. I was waiting for my youngest to get into the car and spotted a couple of cardinals in the tree so… Continue reading Random Bird Activity
This year was not easy. A couple of days before Christmas I happened to notice high up on a shelf the fishing trophy Sarah won in 2011. For some reason this really triggered me as I remembered that trip and how much fun we had with her little sister. She could really pull in the… Continue reading Christmas without Sarah
This last week has been trying with Christmas coming up for the first time without Sarah. On the way to church this morning There were about 4 cardinals in the tree next to the driveway right before we left and this bird gave us a quick flyby about half way to church. It’s hard to… Continue reading Quick Flyby
Today there were a lot of cardinals around all day. With Christmas approaching my wife and I have been having a pretty tough time lately, I would also add that today is one of Sarah’s best friends birthday. I believe that is the reason for the increased cardinal activity. My wife said she saw 8… Continue reading Surrounded by Cardinals

The cardinal was actually off to the side which would be the left of this picture. I doubt this nest is… Continue reading Watching Over
One thing I have noticed is that cardinal visits seem to happen when you need them the most. Today wasn’t really a needy day for me, but it was for my wife. Right before leaving for a Thanksgiving visit with family, my wife got these visitors when she was leaving. I am glad she was… Continue reading Thanksgiving Without Sarah
Thursday and Friday the 15th/16th brought in bad weather, freezing rain and snow. That caused the power to go out Thursday around midnight. Friday morning when I woke up I was looking to get the heat going by running an inverter from the car battery. I opened the garage door and had to go back… Continue reading Doing Laps in the Garage
When I was leaving for work, I had an urge to stop by where Sarah died. I do not have the urge or do that or stop by with any frequency. In 5 months I can probably count the times on 1 hand. It had started to become overgrown and it was hard to see… Continue reading Caught by Surprise!
