Our Christmas Tree

Hello all, 

I wanted to post a pic of our Christmas tree for all to see. I loved it. 

Frosty is on the side of the pic in his cage. He did not freak out at bringing up the tree or anything else like he used to long ago. He has mellowed out shall we say. 

Love and Prayers,

COLD -10 degrees

Hello to all, 

I woke up this morning to -10 degrees. Checked my chickens and they are doing just fine, the little birds around us eating each day are showing up and we filled their feeders, I know they need to eat to live in this crazy weather we are having this year. 

We seem to have about 1 and 1/2 feet of snow on the gazebo right now.

We do now need to put up the Christmas stuff as I call it. Just putting it off. 

Hope all are keeping warm.

Love and Prayers,

Doves taking a bath

Hello to all, 

I wanted to find something that would let my doves take a bath. I looked the web over and found this item. I will say I am not being paid to show this product. I paid for it and hoped that it would work. I did show it to the doves. They looked interested so I added some warm water and turned on the "spray" of water. They loved it. In fact, if it was larger, it would work just fine. I am in the hope that it will encourage my African parrot to jump in and take a bath. It would be so much better for him than just a spray of water for a bath. 

I can't upload a video here, but the link below will take you to my YouTube channel and you can watch the doves take a bath. Any bird would love to jump in and have some fun.

I do recommend that you watch how much water you add, you only need enough to get the pump-to-pump water with no problems. I also use just warm temp for water, not cold.

Drop by and have some fun watching my doves taking a bath. There will be more videos coming now that I have got the first one uploaded. Just learning how to work all the whistles and bells.

Snow? - I thought we left AK!

Hello to all, 

This is the most snow I have seen in West Virginia since we moved here. We moved here back in 2019. We have seen a little snow here and there but nothing like this. I do understand that more is on the way after this storm is over. I do love how pretty everything is after a good wet snowfall. But now when one has to get out and go somewhere. 

Here is a link to watch Vince's plowing snow video.

Here are some pics of snow around us in the yard. 

Update: The next day or so we had a couple of lovely neighbors plow out our driveway twice.
