That is just BEAUTIFUL!!

We don't have cardinals out here. I have only seen one in my entire life and that was when we were back in Williamsburg, Virginia a couple years ago. They are such pretty birds. I don't understand why they don't live out here. We don't have lightening bugs either. :-(

Very clever Mama B. LOL!

[Mama_Bear]

Of course, you know that, you've lived out here.

[jaycee]

Great pic!!

[JustAmy]

LOL

I can't believe this freezing weather has lasted for this many days.

Brrrrrrr

[Mama_Bear]

Hi, jaycee.

Hey, did you hear that Ms. Pelosi has formed a "committee" and she pledges that they will stop global warming in ten years? I heard it on the radio this morning.

Can you believe her incredible arrogance? Of course, it doesn't matter that she isn't able to actually DO it, all that matters is that she wants to. This committee makes for a nice little party favor to her environmentalist base.

Actually, we could use a little global warming in our neighborhood. ;-)

I had birds in California that I never see here..Orioles for instance.

I just lucked on this photo and love it!
I have cardinals raise their young nearby so I see cardinals several times a day usually.

[Mama_Bear]

Isn't it miserable? I have had to break up the ice in our fountain every morning this week. The poor little birds are just having a terrible time finding water. :-(

[MEG33]

It is supposed to freeze again soon after I get home..I am hoping to lure the birds back with water..then they'll find the food.

[Lady Jag]

It was so cold today that Al Gore was giving a speech on global warming and he got pelted with snowballs.

[Mama_Bear]

LOL!!

[Lady Jag]

It was so cold, Barry Bonds tested positive for soup.

[Mama_Bear]

I have heard that in the winter it is often more important to provide water for birds than food. Living in California, we normally don't have to worry about that.

[Mama_Bear]

Ba-dump-bump!!!

You're on a roll, Lady J.

[jaycee]

Give me a break......Pelosi gives me heartburn every time I see those scary eyes and its worse when she opens her mouth. A real witch with a B.!

I see painful reminder of time of past of time. Evil is growing and many are liers. Realization is not for them too know truth!

Glass and sand come together; From sand glass is made. How will their houses be when attack comes?

Warning I have spoken of; who will hear?

I can connect dots and make a photograph for that is what is; Evil is growing; it will be destroyed!

Greatest philosophers in this world don’t know simplicity of human heart. It is simple.

Road is road, et is yours. Pride is a killer for it comes from below. Humility is true gold.

There is distance of time of time; distance of reality and virtue of life. Sadness is, many don’t know path of life. Gold and silver think of it.”]

Thank you all.
Serdeczne pozdrowienia.

Indeed..I missed being at home during the big ice storm...I admit I fretted over leaving the birds so long..but I know there are other bird feeders and water suppliers in my neighborhood.Here during the summer water is needed,too..at least it is what lured them back first in June when I had been gone frome home so long.

They give me so much joy that I do feel "responsible"!

[Mama_Bear]

I know. I have had to turn off the tv news. I just can't stand to watch or listen to her. Unfortunately, I walked past the bedroom radio this morning and Rush was playing a clip of her "promise to end global warming in ten years". She is just amazing, isn't she?

[jaycee]

I really loved "I believe". Read it twice......makes one think,doesn't it?

[Mama_Bear]

I know what you mean about feeling responsible. I would actually rather the birds didn't nest on my property because I feel responsible for making sure that predators don't get to the nests. I have had house finches nest on my patio and had to try to fight off the scrub jays from raiding the nest. I wasn't able to watch the nest day and night and the jays got to the babies. I was just sick over it. I know it is just nature taking it's course, but still, I don't want to be a witness to it. :-(
