It's that time again . . .
the Great Backyard Bird Count is happening
February 16-19, 2024
We were all ready yesterday, feeders were freshly filled, pen and pad of paper sitting by the window seat anticipating who would visit the garden.
It's been a very quiet so far which has surprised me
as yesterday we had snow and I thought everyone would be hungry!
I have however been cooed by a pair of lovely turtle doves while drinking my tea.

Hopeful the weekend will bring more birds into the garden.
Speaking of snow . . .
we were pretty excited to see the white stuff yesterday (it's been a very mild winter).
While my husband shoveled last night, I made us a lovely little snow person to sit on our garden bench.
He's only tiny, so no scarf, but he needed something, so I wove some garden vines into a wreath.
It was too dark to take a photo, I will head out later and take one ;-)
I'm very happy to say that I am the Cover Artist for The Country Register of Ontario.
"Warming Station"
is on the cover of the February/March 2024 issue.
Thank you so much to publisher Harriet Ramos for choosing & supporting my art!
Happy birding
& have a wonderful weekend
