Soon we'll be back to more seasonal temps.<BR/><BR/>Betsy - Our birds do that also - suddenly fly away when they see a hawk. We actually saw a hawk swoop down and catch a mourning dove last year. It was sad for the dove, but I guess hawks have to eat too. We've also had the owl sitting on a limb right above the feeder during the day, looking around, but interestingly enough, the little birds didn't seem to mind and he didn't bother them.<BR/>The writing is coming along fine, with a lot of stops and starts! I sometimes have to push myself to work on it but I'm on chapter 3. <BR/><BR/>Everyone have a great week!!Aletahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02682565517324544381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557566454654273310.post-26973940003571571472009-02-08T21:22:00.000-05:002009-02-08T21:22:00.000-05:00Hi Aleta, Hope you have had a great week. How is...Hi Aleta, Hope you have had a great week. How is the writing going???? <BR/><BR/>I too am enjoying the mild temperatures. I've been sitting outside and walking around searching for birds. I saw more today than yesterday. I know we have hawks because the birds will quickly leave the feeders at times. BUT--so far, I haven't seen them. Your hawk has a good vantage point!!!<BR/><BR/>Have a great week..<BR/>Hugs,<BR/>BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557566454654273310.post-16821436293604648192009-02-08T15:21:00.000-05:002009-02-08T15:21:00.000-05:00It's a grand day here in the north country, too. ...It's a grand day here in the north country, too. We were happy that it at least got to 40°. You are right, it isn't spring yet, so temps this warm are unusual. Perhaps just our Janaury thaw a bit late?Cedar ...https://www.blogger.com/profile/18179231224253338673noreply@blogger.com
