Watching the Birds

I took an old chair and placed it my front garden to create a bird station. The chair is visible from my desk and gives me hours of pleasure watching the birds. My cats both love it too, as they sit in the windows watching the birds come an go. Yesterday, Pandora spent most of the day at one end or the other of my desk watching birds and chipmunks at the feeder:

To create the bird station I tied a small bird house on the back of the chair with jute, and then laid large strips of bark from an old stump on the seat area of the chair (the caning was gone) and tied a pagoda shaped birdhouse onto the seat. I also added some bare branches for perches for the birds. On the large rocks in my garden I placed large shallow oval aluminum container that I weighted down with small rocks from the garden and filled it with water – it makes a fabulous bird bath! 

I use songbird blend bird feed. The birds love it…

Daily Affirmations

Today my goal is to recognize the blessings in my life that sometimes get overlooked. The simple little things that make life rich… A pair of beautiful birds at the birdfeeder, the blue sky over head that’s bursting with puffy white clouds, crisp cotton pajamas in cool cotton sheets at night. Life is good and I am grateful. ~~ Pamela J. Leavey
