So, in addition to the seeds, the downy may have been getting a little protein snack as well.swamp4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03500364141244115390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10279728.post-17827705914470276792008-02-22T23:00:00.000-05:002008-02-22T23:00:00.000-05:00Great action shot of this guy getting a few Campsi...Great action shot of this guy getting a few Campsis seeds. I've never noticed birds in my backyard trying to get at our ornamental Campsis, but now I'll be on the lookout. <BR/><BR/>TomTom Arbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919759721690261620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10279728.post-91511842228270944742008-02-22T22:32:00.000-05:002008-02-22T22:32:00.000-05:00Very sweet.Very sweet.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548755592157386484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10279728.post-88459375910038050002008-02-22T17:19:00.000-05:002008-02-22T17:19:00.000-05:00That last line should read: Meanwhile, hope you gu...That last line should read: Meanwhile, hope you guys continue to get some rain your way.swamp4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03500364141244115390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10279728.post-42083084609781564412008-02-22T17:01:00.000-05:002008-02-22T17:01:00.000-05:00Wayne,The rain is welcome, but it's still nasty we...Wayne,<BR/>The rain is welcome, but it's still nasty weather when you work outside :)<BR/><BR/>The peat fire continues to burn. Forestry has it down to an area of less than 300 acres now. Maybe if we get a couple of days of precip the fire will be out within a week or two. <BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, hope you guys get some rain your way.swamp4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03500364141244115390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10279728.post-11047502815622155962008-02-22T16:12:00.000-05:002008-02-22T16:12:00.000-05:00Nasty weather? *Nasty*?

I've been documenting our vines here and wondered what good all those pods were. Very cool!<BR/><BR/>Funny, but I spent a couple of weeks on the origami page a year ago and though I made a penguin I realized I was sadly not cut out for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
