Birds

Most people don't know that we chose our building lot based on bird-watching. It's true, though. We loved the idea of looking out our kitchen window to see all kinds of birds in the cattle field. We even reversed our house plan to put the kitchen on that side.

Sometimes we get lucky. These pictures taken out of our bay window by the table show a pair of sandhill cranes that've been hanging out for the last few days. We're hoping they are going to nest.

I think mom (Grandma Ockey) would've especially liked these pics.
