Baby Goldfinch Photo Art

Goldfinch Baby on My Fence

I took this picture of a baby goldfinch that didn’t fly off when I went outside. The birds wouldn’t if the dogs would always chase them. It’s like a game for them.

This time the bird was just sitting near the fountain. But little one was with me. “Don’t get near the bird, just stand still, don’t move.”

That’s like telling a butterfly not to go to the flowers in her path. lol

Anyway, she scared it off to the fence, but the bird was so calm. It just sat on the fence and got close and I was able to get some good photos. So I was showing her the picture that I had turned into art and asked if she remembered the little baby bird.

“Oh, yes.”

“And I told you not to go near it so I could take pictures of it?”

“Oh, yes.”

So when her mom came to pick her up, my granddaughter was telling us to be quiet, not to talk loudly, sneak across the floor or we would would scare the birds. Now, we’re sitting inside and not chasing after birds. I just thought it was funny.

Well, we managed a nice long walk yesterday. And another later, no baby yet today. Violent storms and pea sized hail last evening. One of my dogs is terrified during storms but he finally settled down on my lap while I combed him out. We had nearly 2 inches of rain.

And I managed to get up to chapter 24 of Best of Both Wolves. This is the first time through and I have 5 more chapters to go. Hopefully this weekend I’ll be able to finish it up. My daughter said she’d pick up my granddaughter from daycare today. But that’s contingent on if the baby doesn’t come. It looks like we’re going to have thunderstorms all day too.

I’m going to try and ship books and one bear this morning. I still need to finish the other for a 2 bear order. Trying to get the edits done on this book. And I managed to reach 30K on You Had Me at Cougar.

Hope you all have a lovely day! I’m back to edits! Once I’m done with those, I’ll be back to working on the billionaire story and the cougar one.

Gone to the Birds…

The birds stop coming to the feeders and that means something is wrong. So I check, yep, seed is wet and moldy again. So I clean out the feeder, don’t put as much in this time. The no-melt suet was completely gone. All the birds loved it. I couldn’t find it again, so I picked up berry suet and the birds are happy. But also, I tried apples and they didn’t appeal to anyone. So I cute up an orange. The birds like that.

So here is a bluebird, mockingbird, uhm, cardinals got into my tomato plants, dove,mockingbird, mouth open (640x427) (2)gold finch (640x589)

gold finch (2) (640x540) and titmouse. A bluejay was there, but missed getting a picture. And the gold finches love the berry suet and the oranges.

And!!! A mockingbird was drinking from the new fountain. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get the camera ready fast enough. But thanks to my friend, Donna, she said they will come. I just have to give things time. 🙂

Just like with writing. Have new hard drive. Hope this will solve all my problems!!

Do You Have Your Book Yet?

SEAL Wolf in Too Deep, of course. 🙂

If you have it, hope you’re loving it and you can’t put it down to eat, or sleep, or anything. 🙂 That’s always my goal. What if you started to read it, set it down to fix dinner for your family, horrors,  and never picked it up again? That would be horrible!

So I had a “new” bird at the feeder. The tufted titmouse. Isn’t it cute?

Hey, look who's coming to dinner!

Hey, look who’s coming to dinner!

Can’t you just see their expressions? The titmouse is watching from the other feeder. The sparrow has turned his head to look. The other sparrow has his landing gear down.

Joining me?

Joining me?

The gold finch is leaning down to talk to the one joining him, and the titmouse is watching the whole affair.

Is that feeder better?

Is that feeder better?

Since none of the birds are coming to his feeder, the titmouse decides to check out the other. He has made kind of a jumping leap.

Yep you can just see the story unfolding. Speaking of which, I’m over halfway done on Loving the Silver Wolf. 37,000 words to go, but that’s progress!

Okay, off to edits. Have a super great day!
