SATURDAY MORNING NOT AT THE BIRD FEEDER?



"And maybe some hand lotion?  All this swimming has really done a number on my hands."


It's been so hot the birds have been scarce, especially as I put the bird feeders away for the hot summer months.  They will be over later when the sun starts going down, to drink from the water bowl I put out.  I still have loads of photos to share of our chatty birds, but I didn't have time to put a post together. They will be back next weekend.

As for our alligator friend above, I have shared it before.  It was taken in the Everglades back in 2014, and as I reshared another post from there yesterday and for those who may remember it from before, I hope you won't mind another repeat.  I will be transferring an old post at least once a week for a while.


Enjoy your weekend!

  1. Thank you for continuing to put out water for the birds. I am sure they appreciate it.
    I would be giving those nails a very, very wide berth.

    1. Thank you Sue, I miss seeing them regularly. I always feel I need to do something for them, and they do make good use of fresh water :) And I would definitely keep away from those nails.

  2. Yikes, it doesn' even look real. Looks like leather or special effects. But then I guess alligator skin is a type of leather, especially when it is a purse or shoes. Which in my opinion is the only thing they are good for.
