Mid April 2021

We seem to be well into spring, it even got into the seventies today. Our daffies are blooming like crazy.

We have started taking the shore walk for Benji’s noon walk and bringing a camera along. Benji seems to really enjoy it.

Home on the Bay

We are looking forward to getting out on the water once the dock is in.

Most of the bird pictures are taken on the shore walk. We are expecting the migratory birds to move through in the next couple of weeks.

I have been monitoring the Osprey nest for the past couple of weeks to see if there are any signs of activity.

I suspect that we have a definitive answer as to whether or not the nest is occupied as of today…………..

Osprey Nest

We have seen a killdeer. Last year they nested in the field near the shore.

The turkeys remain active.

Red Tailed Hawk

It has been very pleasant to go on shore walks and observe the wildlife.

Fun with Food

I guess I have been getting lazy. It has been quite a week and I just haven’t really felt like cooking. Now that I can grill, maybe I will get back in the groove.

Fun with Benji

I would really like this Pandemic to be over and start to socialize again. I am so ready to have a party and have actual guests over. I am being gently and not so gently reminded that this is not the time to let up on our guard and to continue to observe COVID protocols.

We are getting out more consistent with remaining safe.

Stay Safe, Stay Healthy.

Benji really doesn’t care about blogging

  1. I love the Osprey and the Kildair, and then there’s Benji…. What can I say except that he’s entertaining!
