Tweets - retro style

From earlier in the spring, one of our fine feathered friends... plump, cute.  I have no idea what sort of bird this is.  Perhaps one day I will find out; perhaps one day I will have oodles and oodles of time to devote entirely to gardening and this blog.  On the other hand, that might be a bit too much time, at least, for the next 25 years or so; maybe in 25 years it will be ok to do nothing but....

(Note: Rosemary referenced in earlier post was still alive when this photo was taken.)

 

Unclear what the attraction was for our little friend.  My hope is maybe he came for some of the seeds - the shiso stems still had seeds in them, I think.  So maybe it was an early spring break-fast.  Or, just a stop-in.  Who knows.  The bird bath isn't visible in the photos, but it could probably use a cleaning before true spring comes.

 

Much to do, much to do.
