Mmm. I haven't seen them for a while , actually since Moozzilan stopped coming to the CDR regularly.

Yea where is she?? I have kinda seen her about but not here in the CDR.

Well, it has been cold and wet here for a few days.

While walking I took a few pics for the bird lovers in here. This is a little pond near tl our house and it is actually the first time that I have noticed the nests and birds. I normally hear them but haven't noticed them. Sorry pics are not the best. I couldn't get close enough or zoom in enough to see them up close.
Yeah, sorry picture heavy and more than likely the same three birds. ??

And I finally finished Phoenix's back ground. I used the egg trays and the old cork bark hideout to make it. I also made a hammock for him.

Lovely little birds. Do you know what kind they are? The yellow one resembles the gold finches I have in my yard.

She's so cute. I love to see pets when they know they are a beloved member of the family.

Phoenix looks like a happy camper to me.?
