Connecting with our Higher Power -- 20 dollars

Two cheap bags of bird seed 12 dollars.

One bird feeder 8 dollars.

Some of the best time one can spend.

Watching God's birds eating.

Either they are finding bugs to eat or we feed them -- God always takes care of them -- as He will also guide and take care of us.

An old guy in AA with a couple of decades of sobriety used to say, "if you don't believe in God go buy yourself a bird feeder and watch God's little birds for a while."

6 seed feeders here at home.
2 out by the garage where I often sit.
1 outside my wife's easy chair next to two large view windows.
3 more outside of other windows.

Thanks to God.
We see many, many birds throughout the day.
I never get tired of watching them.
Bring with them -- a lot of serenity -- and close contact with Higher Power.

No matter what kind of mood I'm in, I see a male cardinal and I am like a kid!

No Dave.
All of our birds out here are pretty quiet.
Except for the occasional WoodPecker.
Amazing how they can bang their heads like that!
Reminds me of when I was drinking!

A pair of Sandhill Cranes landed here a few days ago.

Enchanting creatures.

That's cool Dave. We get to see an occasional osprey at Mission Bay when we are doing our weekly bicycle ride. A lot of bird photographers are out there each day enjoying these magnificent birds.

Sweet tweeting.
