So ...The ponds of Barleycorn are teeming with life. So lovely to see all the wildlife busy enjoying the warmer weather. <br /><br />I have always been facinated by birds nests. It amazes me the intricacy of their design and the vast array of materials they find. I always leave out lint from the laundry out for them. I think the funniest thing I have seen birds nest made from is cat hair. There was no mistaking that orange hair from our ginger cat.Morning Glories in Round Rockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988634441429032483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436251929191150062.post-20830633088121408582010-05-21T07:49:41.245+00:002010-05-21T07:49:41.245+00:00Thank you so very much for sharing your world.

When they were ready to leave the water, I would take them back to the pond.

Birds are so very patient. We could learn a lot from them. I remember many years ago an elderly gent telling me that 'birds sing for the sheer joy of living' I am not sure that is true but I like to think so.<br /><br />Tadpoles have not arrived in my pond yet. They came late last year due to very cold weather, it looks like the same thing is going to happen again. <br /><br />Your cat is just so sweet. I felt I wanted to pick him up and sit with him for a while.<br /><br />A delightful and charming post as always.......Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802468583972118464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436251929191150062.post-34160894076519470332010-05-05T17:50:55.079+00:002010-05-05T17:50:55.079+00:00* Dear Sheila, you say the loveliest things to me....* Dear Sheila, you say the loveliest things to me... :)<br /><br />I am the worker bee in the garden...so I'll give you a buzz :)<br /><br />I hope you can pop over to see the tadpoles dancing, the daffodils nodding in the breeze and the doves cooing :)A wildlife gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08261817184002496844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436251929191150062.post-56162399199380719612010-05-05T17:06:05.459+00:002010-05-05T17:06:05.459+00:00Unfortunately my computer is acting up and won'...Unfortunately my computer is acting up and won't let me watch the videos.<br />The photos tell a story though.
