Sorry I haven't been able to be around much. I've had my grandson with me this week, been trying to keep him busy.

My camera is about to die on me, yesterday I tried to photograph my lilacs and got nothing but flickering green and pink squiggly lines on the image screen. Today, I turned on the camera and it seems to be working fine. This is the photo I was trying to take yesterday. I see that it is "flower day" today, so here is my contribution. :-)

Also tried to get a shot of one of the jays that I've been hand feeding peanuts since he was a fledgling. He is very tame, but the camera scares him, so.....no photos of the jay today. He is acting kind of weird anyway because he and the Mrs. are nest building somewhere nearby. He is not inclined to pose for photos. LOL

I may not be able to get back in here for awhile, so I am going to take this opportunity to wish everyone a blessed Easter and a beautiful springtime.

I am so happy to hear that you are going to be getting a new kitten! Be sure to have Grandma Amy take some photos so we can all see her. I bet she is just the cutest kitten ever. :-)

Oh, what a beautiful picture of the lilacs! What kind of camera do you use? I want to get one that will take pictures like that!!

Thank you for sharing, and I hope you have enjoyed the little one, this week.

oh dear, this isn’t your relatively new camera is it? That is what happened to my last GOOD camera.. the pix were pure crap.. totally unusable & the Ispection for repair was 250 ... that is NOT doing anyting, just seeing what is wrong. Heart surgeons charge less for initial interviews.

this pix is lovely., I would show you pix of my lilac plant but right now it is buried in snow (and 3-6 more inches coming tonight)

I'm very jealous of your lilacs! :) They smell delicious! My camera did die. :( I loved it and they no longer make this one.

I'm soooooooo jealous of hand feeding a Jay. My last house, I could feed them right on the deck. Over the years, they got to know me. They became so friendly. Here I'm just a stranger to them still and they just fly off. ;) That is so very special! Enjoy your Jay visitors Mama_Bear! :)

Here's one of my friends from the past house. :)
