The Birds and the Beads

We have both been slackers about blogging this month.  What can I say, I plead “summertime”.  Here is Sunny, just to show you what I mean:

And to make up for lost opportunities, here is another beast for you all – a Giant Silkworm Moth (at least I think thats what s/he is):

Update: This little beauty was in the kitchen a week or so ago.  I captured her/him in a ball jar just long enough to take a photograph.

The bison who live across the street from us had calves this year. We love to sit on the porch and watch them tag along behind the adults.
