And to think I saw it on Mulberry St.

On my way up the hill from my toddle this AM I heard a strange bird call. When I looked across the street there was a flock of turkeys noshing in one of our neighbor's yard. By the time I ran into the house got the camera, they'd moved on down the hill, with the tom looking @ our next door's neighbor's wall wondering if he could jump up there & the hens across the street wandering into another neighbor's back yard. When the tom decided they weren't going to follow him, he meandered across the street to join them.

Can I make it?

Maybe there are some goodies back here

Who'd a thunk?

Winter color

Here's a photo I took yesterday of the lovely cyclamen I got years ago as a Christmas present from my Harvard U. department. Remember you can click on the picture to see a bigger version.

Potter's been ailing for a year or so with failing kidneys and for awhile the prednisone was keeping her going, with a good appetite, purrs, etc.. Yesterday, however, she hardly ate anything and is clearly not feeling well. So depending on how she does today, sometime tomorrow or Sunday morning we're going to take her on the one-way trip to the vet.

I called them just now to see how that would work. The rep. told me they have her down as 17 years, 9 months, and 3 days old. Seems like just yesterday she showed up in our garden as a kitten.

Even though I know it's time, I'm still so sad.

Hope all's well by you.

Blood moon & red bridge

Since I live too far away being able to see the total lunar eclipse the day after my b'day (was happy that not only did we get snow on the actual, factual day, but there was also a full, super, blue moon that day - or at least the actual, factual full moon was within hours of 23:45 when I apparently entered this world 64 years ago), imagine my delight to see February's entry in our Klee calendar. His water color Red Bridge, that looks like it has a blood moon in it. :) Remember you can click on the picture to see a larger version.

Off now for a wee toddle & then, who knows?,  maybe some tootling & laundry.
