Thankful Thursday

I am thankful for signs of spring. I love when mountain bluebirds puff up their feathers against the cold.

 

I love when the swallows argue. They seem to argue more than any other birds who I know. Fortunately, they also seem to forget their arguments very easily.

 

I love when the mountain bluebirds glide past me.


 

 And I love when Shyla is happy.

We probably have a lot of snow days still ahead of us but the warmth of the sun, the brightly colored birds, and being outside with Shyla make me smile.

  4. maybe they "swallow' their pride and admit when they are wrong/admit they are being a jerk. hmmm, maybe a lesson there.

  5. Gorgeous photos. BOL BOL BOL the comment about the Swallows reminds me of the Bickersons. Evidently they were experts at arguing too. It was old radio program back in the 1950's. I recall hearing many of the adults in my family say how much they enjoyed it, along with the Shadow and many others. Being born in 1949, I never heard them.
