A Bud, Petal, Bird, and a Hodgepodge
Mr. and Mrs. House Finch
Linking to Wild Bird Wednesday
Sunday I went outside to check for leaves on the trees and look what I found!
It's a bud, but what kind of bud is it?
It's the Bradford Pear tree and will soon look like this shot from last year.

HodgePodge questions:
1. April showers bring May flowers, or so the saying goes. When did you last 'shower' attention on someone or have attention 'showered' on you? Did you love it, or did all that attention make you squirm?
It isn't in my nature to shower attention or be the receiver of the shower. The last time was at my bachlorette party. I was given a foot massage in front of everyone.
2. Share a favorite 'spring break' memory. Not talking about just the 'college spring break' thing, but any favorite spring break memory you'd like to share. Keep it family friendly please!
Sadly, I can't think of a single spring break memory.
3. It's National Pecan Month...are you a fan? If so, what's your favorite dish that calls for pecans?
I am a fan. I eat them from the bag as a healthy snack, but my hands down favorite—pecan pie!
4. 'Put all your eggs in one basket', 'egg on your face', 'rotten egg', 'walk on eggshells', or 'a good egg'...which egg-spression could most recently be applied to your own life?
'Walk on eggshells' for sure when dealing with upset family members.
5. In my experience___________________________________.
...you never write down anything you don't want someone to read. A hard lesson learned after my brother broadcast my diary entries to the whole family.
6. What's a favorite song with the word rain in its title or lyrics?
Who'll Stop the Rain by Creedence Clearwater Revival
7. What does the word hope mean to you?
Wishing for something that will not likely happen, i.e. I hope I'll win the lottery.
8. Insert your own random thought here.
I have the day off. I hope the rain stops soon.

Move In Day
Mr. and Mrs. House Finch are setting up housekeeping in one of our Juniper Tree. Hubs planted them 3 years ago so they are not very big, but I guess the Finches are trying to keep up with the times. Little houses are the new thing, right?
They were camera shy, even though I tried to hide behind the drapes in the living room. These shots were taken through the window, which includes the screen, kind of gives them an aura. Still, I was happy to capture their move in day.
