It sounds beautiful where you are, Debra!!!!! Yes, I know what you mean. I miss our big crew of wildlife that was here this past winter :o( My squirrel who just sat there as I poured the sunflower seeds over him, isn't here anymore_probably got hit, or maybe when all the animals were being found dead around this area, and trees were being cut down left and right (we think someone was poisoning them though), it really depleated our view of the wildlife in our side sitting area. We have a Rhodadendron that really needs to be trimmed back HARD, but the birds have made it their home, and I don't want to take the dead branches off, for fear of them not having some place to perch over the cold of winter.
