Quiet Monday and Errands

The cats are enjoying a nice morning in the screen room. The air was nice earlier with lower humidity. Coffee was enjoyed. A little quieter as some of the birds have fledged. Still many left. The bluebirds are probably glad for a break. Their eggs will hopefully be hatching in a few days. Very excited about that. Mockingbirds still protecting their babies. Hope they fledge soon. Have a few errands to take care of now. And will try to enjoy the day. A nice day to take a break. Hope your day is good. Photo is mine.

Good morning Carol

Brendel looks like she's comfy in the screen room waiting for the birds to come around.

Nature moves right along. You’ll soon have little birds flying around.

@CarolDM Must be so amazing to have all those fledglings there . . . I've only experienced maybe 2 at a time here - and it's rare. You are fortunate

My Monday was a bit of a lazy one. Tuesday won't be as lazy though. In fact I have to start working early.

You're so lucky to have so many species of birds around, I only see Mourning Doves and sparrows. Brendal looks so content where she is. How's she doing?

Hello Brendel! I am glad you and Dude are enjoying sunbathing in the screen room and watching the birds. I am sitting on a windowsill watching the birds and squirrels in my neighbors’ backyards, and cannot wait to be able to go out on the patio at my new apartment.

@CarolDM, Henry will be much happier and more active once he gets used to the new place. And since he already knows the property manager, I plan to make sure he also personally welcomes Henry.

Well if the birds are crazy in your yard, it appears as though Brendel is having a relaxing day today. She looks really well here in this picture, I hope that is the case.

The cats don't seem to pay a lot of attention to them. Especially Brendel. The Dude talks to them at the windows. She is doing better, thank you for noticing.

What a beautiful spot where to enjoy the sun. I hope that the baby birds will fly out of the nest soon, so you are again free to walk in your garden.

I had a very peaceful Monday, which was surprising. My Mondays are usually pretty crazy, so I definitely enjoyed having a good start to my week.

We're having a quiet day as well. No errands. Got a chicken baking in the oven, laundry is caught up, and cleaned the bathroom. Watching old Sherlock Holmes movies from the 1930s'. Brendel looks comfortable. Have a blessed afternoon.

When birds are nesting closeby, I can't even venture into our back yard! They try to chase me away

Brendel is sure enjoying herself, she's adorable!
