Rain, Rain, Rain

[ysabetwordsmith]

It started raining off and on yesterday, and is continuing to rain today.  The clouds are so thick that it looks dark outside.  I'm happy because we need the rain.

We have a pot of ham-and-beans cooking.  Today's project has been chipping up the rest of the leftover ham.  We'll use some of it for quiche and freeze the rest for later use in various dishes.

I heard a bluejay shrieking outside while I was working.  I got up to look for him through the windows but it's hard to see anything right now.  I did spot a male cardinal near the fly-through feeder.

Aaaaah, soooo.

Yeah, it's getting time for that, though.

Sadly, no woodpeckers around here close... though I have seen/heard a Pileated over on the Peninsula...

I've had seed in mine for a month. Usually if I wait until October I don't get as many birds. But this year they're just ignoring it. >_
