Flowery Friday

 
Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville.

Mama is getting out and about a little more and earlier this week she took a little stroll around the ABQ Botanical Garden looking for some Spring color. She wasn't dissappointed, as there was color around every turn. Starting with these pretty Iris's


She visited the Cactus garden and found this pretty Blue Plumbago

She also visited the Mediterranean garden and saw the bright red bromeliad....

...and some pretty white orchids too!

Oh, she saw some outside color too!

The bottle brush bush was blooming

The lenten roses were everywhere....

and Spring's favorite ambassador, the crocus, were sprouting.


We hope you enjoyed the colors Spring is bringing to our corner of Blogville. 


Here's to a fun weekend filled with Nature for all our friends!

Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.

Comfy Couch Thankfuls

Today I am thankful for a couch to relax on after a morning of running around outside.
Not only is it comfy.....

I can still keep an eye out for backyard critters!

Do you have a place you like to relax and watch the outside world??

March Vibes

March has come in like a lamb in our corner of Blogville. 
Of course, this has turned our pawrents fancy to....

Can you guess?? 

CAMPING SEASON!!! 
Daddy is busy getting ArCee's outside and engine parts ready to go...and, when Mama isn't dressing us up in camping clothes, she is cleaning and packing everything we need inside ArCee

This season, March and April trips we will be here in Albuquerque and then in Tucumcari, to help celebrate the 100th anniversary of Route 66 with our RV Club.  

Only a little over two weeks left, we can't wait to hit the road!

FFF - It's a Birdy Circus


 
Welcome to the wonderful Friday each month where Nature Friday comes together with YAM Aunty's FFF!!  Make sure to visit YAM Aunty HERE to get the Rulez and join the FFF fun!! Check out the wonderful new badge YAM Aunty created for 2026.


Do you know what happens when our Mama has too much time on her hands?? She dresses me like a clown...


...and builds a Birdy Circus in my backyard!  There are swings and whirlygigs and all kind of foodies places for the birds to play and eat. Here I am doing quality control to make sure things are all bird friendly and ready for play. Luckily, Sunny and I don't like the way birdy food tastes but we do like to smell all the birdy (and bunny) smells back here!

Here is our first look at the birds playing, well mostly eating, in their circus area:


Mama is hoping to keep the circus going through the Spring...unless Mr. Fatty the Squirrel shows up!


Thanks for stopping by our Birdy Circus, 
and we hope all our friends get out to see some nature this weekend!


Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.

Birdy Thankfuls

 
The weather has really warmed up here in New Mexico. The days are filled with bright sunshine and warming up well into the 70s(21C). Mama decided that since the temperatures are staying above freezing, even at night, that it was time to open the fountain!!


Needless to say, the birdies are VERY thankful to be able to splash around again!

Birdy Relaxation


When I have had a stressful day, I like to unwind in my Princess tiara with my favorite stuffies. Mama likes to unwind by watching the birdy videos TC and SF have captured. Today, on Backyard Wildlife Wednesday, Mama has put together some relaxing birdy TV for you all to enjoy:




How do you like to unwind after a busy or stressful day???

Birdy Watching Aaaws


What do you see out there, Rosy??

There are birdies everywhere out there Mama. I'm glad you put lots of food out for them!

Ummm, watching those birdies eat sure makes a gal hungry.

Isn't it just about breakfast time, Mama???

Flicker Friday with Flowery Rosy

Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. This week we are going to share some fun pictures and video of our resident Northern Flicker.

He is a big fan of the suet Mama puts in the backyard.
He has no problem breaking off pieces with his long sharp beak, does he??

He doesn't visit Birdy Theater often, so when he does, Mama loves to show him off. This video shows a bit of his personality as he interacts with a flock of Starlings and Red Wing Blackbirds (who can be very annoying!).

He sure is a pretty bird, we always look forward to seeing him around the backyard!


Thanks for joining us for a little Friday Flicker fun today!

We hope everyone has a chance to view some nature this weekend!!

Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.
