The Deer family are fans

of Ethan and Ezra on the court. We passed them today, on the way to the courts for a little tennis under the lights. They sleep like babies after such a romp.
Because of vision problems and other impediments there hitting was not like earlier times, still we had a good time. It is so interesting to see the deer family catching a romp together before the sun goes down. They don't chase tennis balls like the bunnies do. They know that we are watching them so they pose very pretty as though, if they move something will happen. Beautiful nature scenes.

Sparrow's Spring nest

Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow were caught, by me yesterday, shopping together for a new home. They flitted and flirted, just outside my window. Talking and discussing and lovingly disagreeing, if not arguing the benefits and the pitfalls of living at our house.
Mrs. Sparrow was very impressed with the 2 "ready made" nests hung outside our window. Mr. Sparrow hadn't even thought of them as "ready-made" nests. He used them for the provision of building materials for the private home that he had in mind in a surprise and hidden place. He doesn't like the openness, at all, of our porch. It's much too populated. When Mr. Sparrow gets it into his mind to give his sweet chicky a peck, he wants the freedom to do it without a bunch of younguns peeking over the nest to see what comes next.
Mrs. Sparrow was impressed that the porch was fully protected from hailstones. We all know what happened to a great many of last years' nests in that surprise hailstorm we had. Male birds seem to have a very short memory for storms. They have only one thing in mind in the nest building season... 03/09
