Bits And Pieces

The weather here continues to be a surprise each day when you step outside the door.

It was 90 degrees here last week and we needed air conditioning.

This week we are in the low 50's and we are using the heat.

The weather people are calling it "weather whiplash"...that's perfect for what's happening right now!

Much of the same unpredictability has been seen in the skies.

We've also had a few days where the skies looked like this.

I am not sure if the Egrets left for the winter, I think not, I have been seeing a lot lately.

If you look closely around it's eye, 

green is beginning to emerge and that indicates it is getting ready for mating season.

My Catbirds have returned for the summer, and I could not be happier.

They always remind me of my friend Theresa, "texwisgirl", a blogging friend I miss dearly.

The Catbird was one of her favorites.

Our Cherry Blossoms are beginning to fade...

here are a few pictures I took a few days ago when they were at peak.

Now I will look for a nice pink carpet laying underneath, it always makes for a great picture.

On April 2th, 950 drones created a full-scale, illuminated silhouette of the RMS Titanic 

over Belfast Harbour to mark the 114th anniversary of it's sea trial.

Did anyone else see this on television? It was quite amazing.

I made this omelet for breakfast yesterday.

One egg and mayonnaise, blended until smooth.

I added a few spices, cooked it one minute in the microwave and topped it with green onions.

You can read the official recipe here, this was really good, light and fluffy.
