Today has been a very emotional day. We had taken our dog to the vet for bloodwork and chest X-rays. We waited for about 20 minutes and the bloodwork came back good. We left her to get the X-ray done because it was going to take a couple of hours. When I got home I… Continue reading Not All Signs are Welcomed
I am nearing the end of a visit to my Grandfather’s house. My aunt is living in it now. My Grandfather was always one to take care of the birds. As far back as I can remember he has always put bird food out religiously. I heard that he once said if I take care… Continue reading A Backstory, The Birds and Saint Francis
As I was leaving the house this hawk ( I believe it is a Red Tailed Hawk) flew over and perched on this wired right in front of me, only about 50 feet from my driveway. It also struck me as probably a juvenile. It stayed on the wire as I drove up to/below it… Continue reading Perched Hawk
The cardinals have been going nuts over the feeder today because it is snowing. It’s been fun to watch them in the cameras between shoveling and stuff. Glad this snow happened on the weekend so I could enjoy the show! Read more about cardinal signs from a loved one who has passed.

I got… Continue reading Turkey Vulture and Cardinal
I have just been on the computer, chilling watching a lot of cardinals in the camera today as they have been very active. The picture above was taken yesterday. I was working on a car and they we all around chirping at me the whole time.
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 Cardinal Flyby on the Way to Church
