It seems to be official that President O'Bama has won the 2012 election and will remain our president for the next 4 years. We can only pray that the people that we have elected can somehow work together to solve the issues at hand.
On a lighter note, I had a "life bird" come to my feeder today. I was sitting in the hot tub early this morning when not one, but four Evening Grosbeaks landed on the feeder. I was so excited and tried to very slowly reach over the side to get my phone to snap a picture without scaring them away. I managed to get one pic but it was pretty far away and somehow on the second picture I accidentally hit the reverse button and took a picture of myself in the hot tub. Can you say "delete"? One of the females did come back later and I was able to capture her photo on my good camera before I had to leave to take my mother to the eye doctor. Hopefully these migrants will stick around for the winter and I can take a few more picture to share. Like I said they are a first for me but I recognized them because we have a pair in the North America Aviary at the zoo. Never thought I would see one in my yard. So to date I have seen three birds that I have either never seen or rarely see feeding at my feeder this fall. Looks like it might be a great winter!
