Internet

It’s so interesting to read other peoples blogs and realize the importance of the Internet. One can actually communicate with people from many parts of the world, almost daily, and be able to express your opinions to their ideas, arts or causes.

The Internet has linked all nations of the world, with almost instant messages in several modes of communication, such as email, Twitter, blogs, etc. I consider the Internet to be a great invention. Unfortunately is being used for criminal purposes more and more. Intelligent minds gone stray following the path of evil.

Let’s try our best for keeping this wonderful invention clean and decent!

Next, some pictures for you. Enjoy!

Shoo!!

This morning I had a group of Mourning Doves that at I estimate was at least 40 birds, these had taken over my deck, dishes and feeders included! They had almost finished all the seeds from the feeders, meanwhile smaller birds were trying to get close to the feeders and were being chased away by the doves.

I went out and spooked out the doves, they took flight at once. I refilled the feeders with seeds and waited but the doves just decided to leave, did not dare come back. All the other little birds were happy to get fresh seeds!

I’ve been listening to the honking calls of Canada geese lately, I saw some flying over my home earlier and then later I saw another group flying low over a frozen pond when I was on my way to do food shopping.

It makes me wonder, are they looking for forage or leaving the area?

Next, some fresh new photos from the Northern Cardinal family. Enjoy!
