Birthday Breakfast with Roy & Deb
~~~ Wednesday, September 3 ~~~ We enjoyed breakfast at Eagle Cafe, Quarryville, PA, to celebrate Deb’s birthday – which was last week. Since breakfast fits best into their schedule and we have more free time then they do, we usually meet them in a restaurant near their place. I am not a French toast kind […]
My Secret Sister Revealed!
~~~ Tuesday, September 2 ~~~ It was a few weeks ago that we were invited to Kyle and Korina Wenger’s house for Sunday lunch. They are “our” deacons for the year and have committed to having each of their “responsibilities” for a meal during the year of 2025. It was fun visiting with them, their […]
Hummingbird
I marvel that our hummingbirds never share a feeder with another hummingbird. We have visited areas of the United States where their feeders are full of hummingbirds. When at our kitchen sink, I noticed two hummingbirds fighting over the feeder. This one was the winner. Maybe it was female power. 🙂 I think we may […]

Red-bellied Woodpecker Hiding in the Shadows
This male woodpecker is either a young one or it is molting because its feathers look rather ratty. It seemed to be enjoying suet.

Cerwin and Renee (front). Natalie, Jasmine, Anthony, Abigail, and Garth This time we went to the playground first (noon) so lunch would […]
Gray Catbird
The variety and number of birds at our feeders is always lower during the summer, probably because there are a lot of farms in our area that provide access to a variety of grains. They are called catbirds because they give a “meeow” call in situations of alarm. This is the best picture of this […]
Rain
~~~ Sunday, August 17 ~~~ That was a week ago. We could use another good rain for our yards and crops.
Birdseed Thief
We don’t see this guy very often, but I caught him stuffing his cheeks. It is such a cute thief.
