View of Daryl's Grave

I finally got up the courage a few weeks ago to take Daryl from the freezer and bury him. Above is a photo of his grave, with two bunnies for companions. He is in a nice garden with flocks of birds regularly visiting a nearby feeder.

Photo of Some Beads

Here is a photo of some carnelian beads. Nothing to do with the birds, just an idea for a Valentine's Day card.

Shredded-paper Nest

Stanley is having some trouble arranging the very long shredded paper which I put into the bottom of his house, but he and Darryl persevere and eventually make a comfy nest. Here is Stanley is taking a rest.

Groomin' on a Sunday Afternoon

Darryl, on the right, is grooming Stanley who looks like he is enjoying the attention. They are both healthy and active during these warm summer days, and always spend some time looking out the window and calling to friends who might be out there.

Bench and its Shadow

I just printed this image of a bench and its shadow, and hung it on my wall.

Sunset Lighthouse

Summer is in full swing according the marina activity. Here it is just before sundown after things have calmed and the boats are in for the night.

House Cleaning

That is Stanley on the left, and Darryl on the right, in case you have forgotten who is who. This is what they were doing while I was cleaning their apartment this morning, and complaining the whole time, too. coo coo coo COO COOCOOCOO!

Now their home is clean, and they are comfy without the BIG HAND in there. They have fresh seeds and water, a small dish of ground oyster shells, and a live and growing parsley plant which they nibble on. They need their veggies!

I put some fresh string into that nest which I bought, but they threw that stuff out. What do I know about interior design?
