Bird-day Party!

Tuesday we had an ice storm here in Abilene. Schools were closed and the temperature dropped drastically from the 60's, 70's and 80's we've been having this winter. It was so fun to spend the day with Max which doesn't happen very often these days. But the party was out back! The birds were hilarious. I was amazed at how many of them were on the beach entry in the pool. It looked like a party was going on out there! My guess is that the water temperature was warmer than the air temperature. Either that or they were desperately in need of a bath. Anyway, there were these guys:

There were lots of these fat little guys:



I wonder if they figured out they're a little early for spring! There were a few of these blue boys:

Someone invited a fur ball:

And this guys opinion of the whole thing made me laugh!

And I'm throwing this one in for good measure and because it took me a long time to actually catch a bird flying! Be amazed!

There you have it - the highlight of my week, well, after Max actually wanting to spend a day with me. Granted he was housebound but he stayed downstairs with me and that is what I'm talkin' about! Now if I could figure out how to load the video of him moon walking on the ice ...
