Spring is here - so are the birds who despite silhouttes stuck to the glass and curtains, keep crashing in to the windows. This concussed downy woodpecker made a complete recovery after an hour's rest and some water.

Cedar waxwing enjoying the water garden that we just restarted for the year.

Back, of course to Madalyn - this from our visit in February.

This and the following from Chris, Claire and Madalyn's visit here at Easter.

Madalyn and her soon to be official Auntie Nadine - Dan and she became officially engaged on April 28th - don't ask; no date yet!
