Sights and sounds in my part of the planet : POEMS and photos


A LIST POEM: SENSES
A plane
gardenias
birds
fresh coffee
cool breeze
~ ~ ~ 6.17.'18

                                                               woodpecker at suet cake

KNOCK ON WOOD
Chipmunk,
raccoon, neighbor's
cat, squirrels, ant-hills, blue jays,
woodpeckers, finch, titmice--so far,
no snakes!!

HAIKU
brown thrasher
bathing & grooming
for the longest time
~ ~ ~ 6. 14.'18

A brown
thrasher gleans food
from below the suet
feeder. I never see him in
the bush.

Mother's Day plant (s) along the back wall

ON MY BUCKET LIST?
Never,
ever looked in
a nest to see either
eggs or baby birds--I'm missing
a treat?

POPULAR DRINKING VENUE
A squirrel
at the bird bath --
all critters need water.
Why chase it off?? The suet cake's
nearby!

DRINKING, BUT NOT A BIRD
After
plugging up two
good-sized holes, I know why
the holes existed: there is a
chipmunk!
