IT'S QUITE A VARIETY OF BIRDS WE HAVE BEEN ATTRACTINGAnother very humid day so the AC was kept busy again. We're so glad we decided to put central air in 3 years ago. Never seemed to mind the humidity but these last 3 or 4 years either the humidity is getting worse or we're just not as able to tolerate it anymore. Probably a little bit of both.
HUMMINGBIRD FLITTING AMONGST THE FRONT YARD FLOWERSIt was a good morning for a motorcycle run so I headed up into the Goderich area again, picked up a few things at Wally World, cruised around some nice back roads & headed home.
TOOK THE BISBEE KIDS FOR A SPIN ON THE MOTORCYCLE THIS MORNING
Spent the rest of the day inside where it was cool thinking of poor Kelly working over at Deerpark in the heat but at least she got to remain in the office most of the day. 
THOSE LITTLE HUMMER'S SURE HAVE LONG BEAKS
I've had to take down some of the bird feeders because the Grackles were just plowing all the birdseed out of them onto the ground. I'm kind of thinking there must be a better way of doing things out there so the old wheels are slowly turning in my head working on a plan to build myself some kind of foolproof bird feeding station. I first of all need something with a large flat roof to keep the rain out of the feeders so that's where the thought processes are starting. Building stuff is not my thing but I have been known to surprise myself on occasion. 
THE POND BOSS
We have had the computer set up in the same room ever since we moved here nearly 7 years ago. It's been on my mind for quite awhile to move it into our sunroom so this afternoon I began that little project. Right now our computer faces a wall in a bedroom with 2 small windows. In the sunroom we will be able to sit at the computer with big windows on 3 sides & a view of our front yard pond & all the birds coming & going to the feeders. I will have to re-route the cable for our internet so will have to pick up a 25' length of cable in the morning. If all goes well I should be able to type to-morrow night's blog & watch the birds at the same time. Should be a nice change from the darker computer room.......& I love change. I'm thinking I may even be able to set up my camera/scope right beside the computer as well. Awwww yes, it's good to have the creative juices bubbling again..............:)) 
GOT A CORNER CLEARED OUT FOR THE COMPUTER DESK

Looks like a perfect spot for your computer - lot's of light and a beautiful view!
ReplyDeleteReally like the spot for the computer. I like you house it sure looks like a nice place to spend time.
ReplyDeleteWe have to agree with the first two comments - that's a great place to blog and birdwatch at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWe also agree about liking change and sitting too long in one place. Our "morning computer" is in our living room, windows close by so we can see who is out walking their dogs.
The other two computers are in the casita, and the door and front windows are behind us, so we have to pay attention to our work!
Got to get up to Bayfield one day and see your place in person.
Hey Al, You sure are looking good on that bike of yours... I love your birdie pictures and the hummingbirds are so darn adorable... I think your computer will be perfect in that sun room... Except I would get sidetracked watching the birds...
ReplyDeleteHave Fun & Safe Travel
