November is upon up. Now its a waiting game. Waiting for Thanksgiving, waiting for Christmas, and waiting to leave for the southwest.
One highlight of these dark dreary days is the newest guest at our bird feeder:
I have never had a Cardinal at the feeders---ever. Oh the excitement to see this little guy! He sure added some brightness to the dreariness. My only wish was I had my good camera. The company said any day now. I sent it in mid-September!!!
Today's project is to make Egg Rolls for our weekly Sunday Packer Party. I'll let you know how that goes!!!
My heart goes out to those on the East Coast. Life will never be the same for those families.
And that's the way it is...............................
me to on the heart out to the East coast. beautiful cardinal, we had a family this year, the babies are so cute
ReplyDeleteIt will all happen before you know it. We had cardinals the other day, too. We have them around all summer. I really enjoy them. We also had bluebirds on the deck and one was trying to figure out the feeder. Funny to watch.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been given the okay yet to set up bird feeders at this refuge. Some refuges allow it and some don't. I miss seeing my feathered friends close up. :)
ReplyDeleteOne of my Most Favorite Birds! Beautiful captures :)
ReplyDeletePlease don't spend too much time, in a waiting mode. :-) You will be missing all the wonderful things, which each day brings our way.
ReplyDeleteIf we look forward too much, we don't live the life, which is now.
Me'thinks anyway.
Gentle hugs,

Those are great shots of that beautiful cardinal! They are my favorite bird and I love seeing them under our cranberry bush!
ReplyDeleteNice photos ! Glad you have the Cardinal at your feeders ! We have them all year round here and they are quite funny to watch ! Hope they don't take to long with your camera and they fix it like new ! Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteYou are SO lucky. I have only seen the Cardinals once at my feeders. My daughter has them in EC. Have a great trip and enjoy it. Do you stick around til after the holidays? Whenever you leave, travel safe. At least you will get to leave the icy air behind.
ReplyDeleteAs for those Egg Rolls, omg, I haven't made them in years. Hmmmm and they are so darned good. Gotta make some.
Have a great weekend.

We have a ton of cardinals around here -- male and female, who look so different at times. Egg rolls? They sound delish!

ReplyDeletei think you captured the Cardinal beautifully! Those egg rolls sound yummy!!
ReplyDeleteI thought you were going to say, it is a waiting game for SPRING!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCardinals are the parrots of the north. They are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how wonderful to see a cardinal in real life...you are very fortunate.
