Happy New Year from Pearidge,Arkansas! Day 13 features an album of a safari type park in Gentry,AR that my sis, niece and I went to this afternoon. We drove through some beautiful land with some exceptional animals along the way. Enjoy and smile while you're at it!

  Happy NEW Year everyone from Pearidge,Arkansas!   

   Rosie is very pretty! Good luck to her and Bobby. May they have lots of offspring! 

  If I had a vehicle I'd drive that far to see one! 

 

Here it is, Sue Chandler posted the pic of fb. It's in Rochester, maybe you all can find it tomorrow!!

jeanne & Sue posted the pic on fb!! 

I believe that's on the east side of the city. 

You take some awesome pics Bonnie!  I especially like the close up with the female cardinal! 

  Thanks Lola and Janet! Day 12 in paradise features bluebirds. In the back end of the ranch where a herd of the bulls are kept I came upon a bunch of bluebirds. They weren't very close so the pics aren't the clearest . I was just happy they stayed still long enough for pics cuz they move frequently. I happened to spot the Egyptian geese after a 4 day hiatus from seeing them. In an evergreen tree I spotted a gorgeous male cardinal and as I got closer could see the rest of them in there. And just before the sun set I came upon a big flock of mostly Brown-headed cowbirds and starlings in one of the cow pastures. Follow the link below to see my pics of the day.

  Hey Big Frank thanks for sharing your memories! Blond hair when you were a kid I see! Tell Tracy and Bruce I said hi and I hope you find some peregrines!  

 

They are such gorgeous birds! Thanks for sharing! 

[sitting on seats, in a tree, watching falcons,]

A much smaller visitor at our feeders this morning - a Redpoll. Spotted and ID'd by Rod... I missed it, but a pleasure to know they are there!

I typed in Redpoll on google and this is what I got!

 Wow, Rod saw one of them at your feeder!!! YIKES!

Then I realized I typed in Red poll, not Redpoll!   Smaller visitor.....NOT!!

We are quite rural, Donna, but honestly!

What can I say but OK, I'm on the caffeine now so all is good!

OH, my dream I had this morning was well....enough to put me away! I'm going to tell it because I'm looney enough to do so! I was in Rochester on a visit and went DT to see the falcons. Was suppose to meet up with some watchers. Couldn't find any when suddenly I hear "Hey, over here". I looked around and was shocked to find, MAK, Carol, Kathy O, Dana, Joyce, a few unknowns and "SHAKY" sitting on seats, in a tree, watching falcons, like it was no big deal. I usually remember my morning dreams and OK, I'll be packing my bags!    NOT MY FAULT, DREAMS HAPPEN!!

The seat part is feasible but I don't think any of us could climb the tree to get to them!  I almost never remember dreams.  And Bobbie I sure would love to see one of them visit my feeder!
