Happy New Year!

 

With the holidays, I haven't had much time for crafting. I have a little project I started, so I will finish that and get back to my unfinished projects. 

With Bill having days off, we get out more. We took advantage to some sales and did a few rides around the beach areas. On one day we went to Galilee, which is a port with lots of fishing boats and birds. I spotted a hawk on a pole, that was being harassed by a group of crows. He sat long enough for a photo before he got tired of the harassment.



Around the area I spotted a few Blue Herons and lots of seagulls. The Herons looked like they wished they had gone south.



We sat at the docks and enjoyed the views from the car. This building is one that they process the incoming catches of the day. Their idea of a Christmas decoration.



Then we stopped at the fishing area and walked up the hill to enjoy the views.



At another beach, we enjoyed the views across the bay.



Another day we did some areas to look for Snow buntings, none found but I spotted a large group of Lapland Longspurs.



At home our feeders are always busy. Some will stay still long enough for a photo and others, grab a seed and take off. Snow and cold, always brings in more visitors and it is a nice way to find joy on cold winter days. I hope everyone has a wonderful new year, filled with joys and good health.
