Chirps and Chatter



Snow on the roof melted to create an ice dam which found a path through the roof into the house to drip, drip, drip, drip.... drive me crazy. Kind people shoveled snow off the roof and put black birdseed to soak up the warmth of the sun to melt the ice. Birds found the birdseed. I sat on the pile of snow that came from the roof. Birds swooped over my head. A squirrel chattered his disapproval but still came to claim his share of the unexpected treat. I chattered back and pushed the button on my camera one more time.

Just checking you out after our little visit at the funeral. Was good to see you and nice to know where to "find" you now! I enjoyed your website and hope to find more time to look closer at what you have on there! Just now had time for a quick peek. -Amy (Kev's-not sure if your cousin Amy I checks in on you!)

Thanks!

Amy - It was fun to chat with you for even a few minutes. Initially when I read your note I was confused about the Amy I... Then I figured it out! Now, it'll be interesting to see if I can differentiate between the 3 Amy's who leave comments!
