Two bluetits were above him, pecking at the apples still on the trees and he kept looking at them very crossly as if he was afraid they were pinching his apples! I wished I could have taken a photo but I know that as soon as I open my door, they'd fly away!Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-90349780430706984112010-11-27T19:04:06.951-05:002010-11-27T19:04:06.951-05:00livintheblues, We will have to "spar" if...livintheblues, We will have to "spar" if the Maple Leafs ever play the Thrashers! <br /><br />Nancy, You are dang sure right about "being computer free for a few days and smoke free" hopefully forever!

You could see one yet.<br /><br />Country Mouse, Yes...thankfully,the "thoughts" of wanting a smoke are becoming less frequent.:)<br /><br />Thanks JP, It is great to be online again!<br /><br />BeadedTail, The game was amazingly fun! Hmmm...Raccoons are bad for raiding feeders. Bringing the feeders at night is one solution. Adding baffles is another option. <br /><br />Ann, It is getting easier. Thanks!<br /><br />Carolina nana, The only thing I understood about the game was how they scored.LOL! Anyway...it was still fun.<br /><br />Russ, Got to love the "thumps up" gesture!:)jeanlivingsimplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08820800238853344959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-70240481254579817412010-11-27T08:44:14.388-05:002010-11-27T08:44:14.388-05:00Great shot of the little birds.I am including your...Great shot of the little birds.I am including your granddaughter.

I'm sure anytime those cuties are involved it is wonderful. :)<br /><br />We've been getting more birds to our feeders since the temps dropped this week. Our pond was actually frozen for the first time which is really LATE for Chicago. I like to watch the birds and squirrels figure out to drink near the heater where the ice is not frozen. Even the opossum comes to the pond for a drink--I'm glad I have it for all of them.Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042143254001890567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-50938205395164304822010-11-26T17:39:36.014-05:002010-11-26T17:39:36.014-05:00Happy you had a great Thanksgiving Jean.. and got ...Happy you had a great Thanksgiving Jean.. and got a taste of the Canadian Game..Now I could do a little hockey trash talk but my team is worse than yours ... :)livintheblueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03568851367734126452noreply@blogger.com
