Zippity Doo Dah

 There's a bluebird on my...............................nest box!!  Yay!!!

Moonset, Sunrise, Surprise!

 

Friday night's full moon settles into the western sky early Saturday morning.  

A few minutes later, the sun came up in the eastern sky.  Hallelujah!

When I turned around to enter the house, the glass in the windows and doors were reflecting the sunrise.  That was my surprise!

Son Before the Father

My sister Faye tells me that this early blooming wildflower is also  known as the Son Before the Father because the flower pops up on a single wooly stem before the leaves.  Similar to a Dandelion,  the  Colt's-Foot, another common name for this plant, is a member of the sunflower family.  When the leaves mature, they have a resemblance to a colt's foot.  The leaves are known for their ability to cure a cough and when dried, can be used for a cup of tea.  These little drops of sunshine were photographed at the edge of MM road during March.
