afternoon birds and shadows...

good morning...

had some visitors yesterday afternoon...

3 crows dropped by briefly...

they are a noisy bird...

and then the snow birds came with a new one...

and they fight over those feeding holes...

such a frenzy going on out there...

and the doves with the new one...

its very tiny, as small as the snowbirds...

maybe a little smaller...

and I have no idea what it is...

UPDATE:   its a dark eyed junco- another little sparrow

a new on for here...

and the shadows came as the sun started down...

we had a new bag of bird feed to open...

so I transferred it to a big plastic jug as DH went to fill up the feeders...

we wore our hoodies...

it wasn't as warm as it had been...

a new male cardinal...

he is very small, too...

either born very late last year or through the winter...

we had some 60s-70s in December...

either way, lucky to have made it through the nasty winter...

got up at 2:30 this morning...

I did not feel right...

so I tested my blood...

been checking it ever since...

I am running between 276 and 318...

I cannot do dairy, lactose thing...

but it also jacks up my blood sugar...

normally carry low blood sugar...

I have been having some major tummy troubles taking all this cold medicine...

so I got some yogurt to get things normal again...

and I have been doing 2 a day...

and lots of juice...

and peanut butter for some reason...

if the Type 2 was back, what I ate before bed last night would have killed me...

so I am not worried about that...

just will take today to get it in a normal range...

prayers are welcome that it does it before noon...

;)
