The power went out and so did dog Zoe’s lights. She let me sleep after 7:00. When we went out we saw the cranes, they even came close by and we tried to walk slowly in order not to disturb them, as when I first saw them they were sleeping with their heads curled around their back, like flamingos.
The first is a flock of glossy Ibis. Looks like a crane is flying in to join them. Second, view from this morning after our walk. the mothers’ day gift (nothing from the dog) is daffodils and tulips finally pushing up out of the ground, and shoots of grass where last winter’s grasses are laid to rest.
I don’t know what’s for dinner this evening. I’ll see what inspires me during the day. Meantime I look forward to visits to see family and visits here by family. Enjoy the day! Cheers, Dee
