A party, a walk to view the owl's nest, wetland walk


Buster and I began the day with walkies in the meadow.

We were waiting for the kids to arrive!

Isabelle turns 2 next weekend. We had an early party in the country.

First, though, we took a walk to see the owl nest. Yup. The most photographed owls in Lanark County! We met a professional photographer, with a HUGE camera lens. She and hubby were watching the crows attack the owls. Momma draws the crows away from the chicks.

We had a chat with the ponies first.
The foal was born in February.

I love the buds on the trees. Such a bright green!

Buster was keen to check the flicker out.

 
I showed Jofee the flicker's body.





Isabelle turns two next weekend. We had an early celebration at our place! Her cake was finger-lickin' good. She wouldn't let us take it away! "No. My cake!"

 After the party, time for a walk to the wetland island. Bridge building is a gr. 4 curriculum unit, last I looked! I did a video of our gr. 4 bridge work, when I taught a gr. 4/5 class!
She's making a bridge, just like Gramma!

  2. Your grand-daughters are sweet. Love that someone whistled Happy Birthday to little Isabelle. Cute that she didn't want her cupcake paper taken away.

  5. And more good fun with kids!
    Yesterday I went to a birthday party for a ten year old. His Grandma was having the party and wanted all the neighbors who had met and helped Lucas to be there. It was fun.
