The weather in Arizona has been beautiful.  After doing some watering I decided to put some bird seed out and as I was resting I heard this pair of Cardinals arrive in the area.   They do have a different chirp from the other birds.











They are such a striking red color and I luv to watch them. 

What kind of birds are in your area?

Growings In The Garden

I was outside this fine sunny morning here in Arizona and I'm sharing a few things I found.






I found this cute bunny at the Goodwill store a few days ago.  There R hearts which make it great for Valentines as well as Easter.  I luv his color green.




This is Cilantro I planted a few weeks ago.  Time to cut but I wanted a picture 4 U.




A closer look at the leaves of this herb.  




The first bloom of my African Daises.  There R more buds that will be blooming soon.  Can't wait.




Pansies I planted in a carry all container.  This was used for brushes, hoof pick, fly spray...U get the picture.  On the other side R stocks that have bloomed but only have buds now.

Glimmer of Spring

I understand that pansies R somewhat tolerant to cold.  Despite our few nights of frigid weather, this and a few others R still blooming.  The pot was given to me by my dad a long time ago.   The chair belonged to my grandfather.
