Sunday, December 14 – The day our family was coming for our Christmas celebration. When I woke up and saw the snow, I hoped it wouldn’t keep anyone from coming to our family Christmas lunch.

This gray, black and white junco looked brownish/yellow in the bright early morning sunshine.
It was fun to see a Red-bellied Woodpecker at our suet again. I haven’t seen one for a while.
Now another mystery begins until she reveals herself. I don’t think there are any “rules” about how long they keep it a secret. I found this small bag in our church mailbox on Sunday and am excited to begin another journey with a secret sister. The bag contained this note and three gifts. This turns […]
