It is so very wonderful that you do this Dearest Polly. It truly touches my heart. You are indeed an angel.
Growth Through Adversity
When I lived in Westerly Rhode Island, I helped a number of Snapping Turtles (these were adult snappers ... fully grown) to cross the road to their destination .... also, when I was attending school in Old Lyme CT ... I helped a number a 'just hatched' baby Snapping Turtles ... I took half a dozen of them to a nearby pond in a cemetery in Old Lyme ... a good place for them
Like I said ... 'I am my Father's daugther' .... he had a great love for Turtles and he himself was a Turtle in many regards and I feel his spirit is in every Turtle I come across ....

Autumn has also arrived here. The trees leaves are changing and the air is cool and clean. Last night shortly after midnight (CST), i was able to enjoy 4 does and a young deer casually strolling by. Love is in the air.

It is a lovely sunny early Spring morning here today and I know those of you across the pond have had huge amounts of snow. I thought I would share a little of my spring morning in my garden with you.

The idea of having Spring in February is absolutely amazing to me .... here in the US we have to wait until April to see real signs of Spring, crocuses have definitely burst through by then, but the trees are still a little sleepy from the winter months ... so your photos, dearest Lorri, are most welcomed and very much needed (wish I was there ... breathing in the fresh Spring air!) ... thank you for warming my Soul!

Glad you liked them Polly Yes Spring comes early here sometimes and you can just see the start of buds on the trees and hear the dawn chorus. You'd be welcome anytime honey
Some more Spring time shots

And we also had some new visitors to my garden today, a pair of Blue Tits and managed to get a picture of them feeding

Several nights ago I saw my first bat of the season.
The night before last I heard the first tree frog of the season.
And last night I received my first visit from one of the pair of owls that lives in this are.

That is funny, because I saw my first bat about a week ago, in the middle of the day, attached to the bare outside wall of my place of employment---not under an eave or overhang or anything, just asleep against the wall with no obvious protection. It was gone the next day. I hope safely so.
