Good Morning:
Oh it is a lovely and warm day. The twitterpated birds are busy gathering bits of this and pieces of that. All to be woven into ragged yet efficient homes for their upcoming eggs.
I am on the watch for the return of my yearly visitors...The Hooded Orioles.
I have my Oriole feeder ready to hang at the first sight of flickering orange. They will stay with us from early spring through September. The male visits first, establishes the feeder and then brings his "wife". They will build their nests away from the feeding station. Once the eggs have hatched and the babies (usually two) are big enough to take flight, mom and dad will introduce them to the feeder. By the time they take leave in the Autumn, the babies will be teenagers.
Oh how I adore Springtime!
In celebration of the upcoming Vernal Equinox, I am offering free shipping on my three favorite prints from my Art Shop... When purchasing, mention that you read about the sale on my blog and I will add a free ACEO print of your choice.
Here are the three Springtime prints:
Little Bertie in the Garden
Rabbit's Unexpected Party

Until Next Time:

Hi Kim and thanks for stopping by my blog today.
Your art work is darling! I just love bunnies...real, painted, stuffed, any way they come. They are the sweetest of all creatures!
You live down the dusty trail? Lucky you! I live in megatropolis probably not too far away, but then California is a huge state.
Have a fun evening!
xoxo Cori
Oh Bertie and Fiona...SO CUTE:)
hooray for Spring! I'm slowly feeling alive again!!! xoxo...jenn
I too adore Springtime but I look for the hummingbirds and they have been back since the first week of March. they, too, send the male out first and then the females follow. they have been buzzing around the honeysuckle for several days. I love it.
