Nest Boxes....
Because the Turkeys kept getting stuck in the small Nest boxes... we had to invent a bigger one for them.
Costco box does the trick!

Plying my Gotland Yarn~~
Trying to ply my Gotland yarn..... with Mia helping. She does keep my lap warm and purrs, so it is not all bad. LOL
The two different types of Gotland, lighter one was from NZ... the other... not sure where that was from.
Hopefully, I can find someone to make a scarf or something from it.
Changed my spinning corner. The cats decided they liked watching birds from the other window, so I moved their cat tower.
Spring Flowers ~~
Beautiful Spring flowers in the House. DH missed having bulbs, so we bought a couple of containers of them to enjoy.
Had no idea what the colors were going to be...so it was a surprise.

Thank you Mom, for all the plants!
DH, took me to the garden center and then on to Lowes yesterday, as Mom, sweetly sent him some money so I can buy plants. Thank you Mom!
The rain held off for me too.
You can see, Seymour, and just how tiny it is. Also slowly collecting plants that are green. When one misses the lush green of the NW, this is the only way to get a fix. ;) Really want to add a Doug Fir Bonsai.... to the collection. (I already had the ficus and dinosaur moss)
Seymour below for a close up.
Spring Bulbs,,, will plant them outside when they are finish blooming.
The Gardenia plant.... has a neat braided trunk. Will make my Art room smell wonderful!
Pot of Strawberries... also bought a Lavender plant to put in the Kitchen Garden.
I love plants!

A Collection of beautiful eggs.
You can see two Turkey eggs, along with all the Hen's eggs.
The Welsummer eggs are the dark ones, and continuing to get darker by the week.
They taste really good!

More Poultry and wild bird photos~
Took the Olympus out this morning to take some photos.
It handles the super bright snow glow better than the other camera..... well... as long as I do not want to mess with it.
Too cold out. About 10* now.
First Turkey Eggs~
So the next morning I went out and found three eggs sitting in the leaves there.
Sadly, they had frozen.
The main part of the shell is a little more white than the photo shows.Think they are quite pretty eggs.
