Outdoor Wednesday ... The Survival of Spring

It's Outdoor Wednesday
over at Susan's Place


Be sure to stop by and see what she
and many others are sharing with us all today.

The Survival of Spring in Georgia..
The dafidols took a beating from our
recent gift of snow here in Ga.
I thought fer sure these lil guys were gonners.
This picture was taken early as the snow started
to fall and after being covered for 2 days with 4 inches of snow
They...

bounced right back up to life by this morning !
A lil dirty and bent .. but still beautiful.


We still have a smidgin of snow on the ground in
certain areas of the yard .. and even ole Frosty is
still standing.
Despite all that.. Spring has returned.

The critters were all out & about this morning..
As I watched from my bay window I saw the
Squirrels were chasing one another..
Flirting & Playing.
Others were
fillin their bellies full from
the corn buffet provided from the
Redneck Monster Feeder out back.

I even caught
this lil fella robbing my coconut husk inserts
from some old hanging baskets.


There were bluebirds and red birds
and even a few golden finches
BUT

of course as I went outside
everyone ran off or flew away except for
A black capped chickadee who
was busy eating breakfast.



Thank You for stopping by
to visit my addition to
Outdoor Wednesday...
and a special Thanks to Susan
for hosting this fun event for us all
each week.

    What a wonderful post and I love the little bird eating so dainty. My hubby put out suet and a pile of blackbirds looked like a Hitchcock movie on our front lawn.

    Have a Wonderful Wednesday

  8. Love the shots of the furry and the feathered! They are as eager for spring as we, I think.

  9. Thanks for the lovely pic of the daffodils. My birds always flee when I come out to take a photo, too. Sigh. The chickadee is cute.
