I guess the rest of them found their "areas" and just two of them are still here. That big guy has been my favorite. His name is "Bootsie" and as big as he is, he has a meow like a 6 week old kitten.
They were out in the back yard the other day while i was refilling the bird feeders.
They are at their water containers.
Back in the early 2000's we visited Seaport Village in San Diego and was sitting in a restaurant which I can picture but can't remember the name. We were sitting near the window looking out at the ocean when this bird landed on the window frame as if he was waiting for us to throw some food out for him.
Not sure why this came up in my photos today other than to remind me that I really NEED to go to San Diego again. I guess because winter is coming I'm remembering all the places I want to go when we are dealing with cold weather in the mountains and I want a sense of spring or summer somewhere else.
And the rest of the birds are from our last trip to San Diego which has to be about 7 or so years ago. I think we're due to another visit.
I'm putting these here again on this blog to remind myself and to hint to Mike that it's time to go again at least for one overnight trip.
While walking down by the lake I noticed this plant. The wind was blowing and this leaf flipped over in the wind. I had tried to straighten it up for a photograph and realized it was best to leave it this way and then I saw why - I looked closer and it was really beautiful.
