Spring Has Sprung
 

I guess spring is officially here.

Today I saw a dove sitting in a hanging pot on the clothes line. I said to myself, "Self, that's an odd place for a dove." The pics tell the rest of the story.

Awww...how cute!

Isn't that "Hens 'n Chicks" in the pot?

my first thought, too!

That made me lol

I think that's called a squab

14 degrees F here this morning, Spring is postponed until further notice.

It is gonna take a flock of those for a decent meal though spud.

Not til it's cooked. 'Til then it's just a flying rat's country cousin.



And, yes, I think that is 'hens & chicks'.

There isn't much nesting material in that pot.Maybe she had to lay those eggs fast. :)

Just needed a perimeter to keep them in the center, she had that nice soft green stuff to lay the eggs on.

I suppose. I wonder how she's doing.

Slowly, at 350F with a little sage and onion, I suspect.

Just a shade under 80 degrees F here today as I sit here typing this from an open air coffee shoppe. We had nine inches of snowfall ten days ago.

Snowed here yesterday, gorgeous t-shirt weather today.

UPDATE
 

[paraphrasing Lebowski] The dove abides, man. [/paraphrasing Lebowski]:blunt:

Latest dove pics taken through this thingie here.

very nice! That's a very trusting dove even with the thingie there.

That's about 75 feet! She ain't that trusting.

no, I meant the fact she is on a low hanging pot on a clothesline and out in the open.

I'd feel especially blessed if a dove took roost so close to my viewing pleasure.:)

Today's Spring project at TF's house:

Hows that filter work when the water volume is high? Does it just wash off or???
Looks pretty neat though. I'm very curious.

When the Daffodils flower it must officially be Spring. They're two to three weeks late this year.

Not sure what this tree is, but it makes for a reasonable photo.

Carruthers, you have a lovely driveway.

I wish!

....as the actress said to the bishop.....

QUIT TALKING ABOUT HOW SPRING HAS SPRUNG.

Cite!

I NEVER said that!!!!!! Who says I said that? He said that and she said that but I never said that. That isn't what I'm saying. My point is that I said he said Spring said and Sprung said...
