Feb 16. A little of this and that …AGAIN

January has kept Leona ,grandchildren and I busy watching new life come alive. Remember the egg I showed a few weeks back.

Showing healthy signs of life.
As day 21 of setting the eggs came closer,my phone was kept busy with …MomMom ,are the chicky-peeps hatching yet, with the promise I would FaceTime them as soon as I saw anything happening ,…that was good for a few hours.😄
On day 21 , I saw signs of a tiny hole,and you could hear the bitties peeping.
It took about 45 minutes from starting to cracking out.
And here they are, all fluffy and healthy.

Also Leona was surprised with some ducks,and she is so enjoy watching them waddle around,they didn’t stay inside very long as a wet duck is a HAPPY duck.

And talking about wet..
We have had lots of rain ,look at these osprey nests(top pictures were taken with summer) ,they will give you a good idea just how high the river is right now at the camp site. We were there yesterday to check on the camper,and grounds.

And to think we would sit under the little cedar tree in chairs drinking coffee in Nov….now the water is about three feet deep.

There will be some clean up of plastic bottles that have come a shore..as you can see.

How ever the little flower bulbs I planted are thriving with the wet.

I finished the crocheted blanket for baby.

Have a lovely week!

  1. Congratulations on your new babies. =) The blanket looks wonderful for THAT new baby, too. The flooding river – oh wow, that’s a big difference! I hope it hasn’t been too hard on the wildlife.

    1. Thank you! I don’t think it was too hard on the wildlife in our area. The spring peepers are very happy,as I’m sure are the toads ..I’m hoping for lots of them any way for I have a feeling the skeeter problem is going to be a problem!

    1. Thank you!🥰 daughter-in-law wanted something that would go with either sex,and not to frilly in case of a boy. I think she’ll like it. Spring is such a special time with greenery so fresh.
