A grey, somewhat chilly, likely to be rainy day.

I think I'm going to stay home, turn the heat up a bit (cutting a potential exercise class), and watch the Stellar Jay on its endless round of "Hop onto the lowest branch of the big cherry tree - now hop up another two feet, again, again, again, again. Reach the top of the tree, fly down to the ground below the bird feeder, look for dropped seeds. Hop onto the lowest branch ... repeat."

Lovely blue bird, exuberant pink tree, dramatic red azalea below - and no easy way to photograph the scene because the scales differ by so much. Looks great in person though!

Weather here has been gorgeous, unbelievably so... 80° this afternoon when we left work, and there were a number of brightly colored goldfinches at the feeders, happy to take advantage of our buffet dinner offerings. We also have a pair of wild bunnies who have been frolicking in the yard; they give me a great deal of pleasure as I watch them chase each other. It's not the same as watching Alta and Creeper, but I'm trying to "make do" and be grateful for what I have here, and now.

Thanks for posting about the things you see! I miss you.
