Feed The Birds!!!!

This bird has been hanging around my feeders........

I just could not figure out what it was.

Google....bird book(s).....nothing!!!!

It was always fighting with this bird........

the European Starling

or at least that's what I thought........

Then the hubs started watching and he says

 "their not fighting, those are babies and the Starling is feeding them"!! 

I grabbed the camera first.....of course,

questions come second!!

Despite the fact that the "babies" are huge and look nothing like the Starling, he was right (of course)!!!!!

There are three.......

look how big they are!!!!!!

this is what they look like when mamma's coming.......

mouth's open wide!!!!!

I was so happy to capture this shot of her feeding the "baby"!!!

and this one also....it's a little blurry but oooohhhh so cute!!!

Delicious Orchards!!

Hold on to your hats ladies and gents...this place is awesome.
A 20 minute drive from home, this is, hands down,
about as close to nirvana as you can get.

Delicious Orchards, Colts Neck,  New Jersey

a farmers market of sorts, but sooooo much more!!

I just LOVE the weathervane on the roof!!

This cute little barrel lets thirsty shoppers sample their apple cider.

Which by the way...is amazing!! 

Pies, pies, everywhere there's pie's...the best I have ever eaten!!

Homemade breads and fabulous cheeses...

all made on the premises!!

Fresh produce and tons of fresh fruit, I forgot to get a picture of all the fruit.

Florida Corn

Eggplant anyone, these were gorgeous!!

Fresh Herbs and...

Tomatoes

have you ever seen this many??

They have a huge variety and lots of "sampling"

so you are sure to pick the perfect one!

They also have tons of homemade candy

if you happen to have a sweet tooth like the hubs!!

and a cute little cafe which is the perfect resting spot,

after all that shopping.

If you go, the apple cider is a must try!!

Outside, you will find lot's of this...

beautiful flowers for the garden...

and this, don't you just love it?!

And the Fritter Shack

where you get these...an apple slice, dipped in funnel cake batter, 

deep fried and covered with powdered sugar.

Just in case you need a little more flavor, dipping sauces are provided.

Honey, caramel and chocolate, we liked the caramel best!!

Good thing we got three, these were really good!!

And super low - cal, I am sure!!

Delicious Orchard's...a little bit of everything fun!!
