This morning I visited with a former colleague in her backyard. I told her I thought it was a real sylvan glade. We caught up on family news and watched the birds that came to her feeders. I saw woodpeckers, bluebirds, towhees, and flickers in addition to the species that hang out in my little yard. She even gifted me with a suet cake so it looks like I will be expanding my offerings!
@eudora Can you believe her daughter, SIL and 2 young children just left after sheltering with her for 4 months? Their home is an apartment in Brooklyn with no yard so this was a real haven for them.
