Outdoor Adventures

Now that I think we are frost free (hopefully) I decided to begin my garden.  I can only do a few pots at a time, but here is what I have so far: 

Hopefully they will flourish this spring and summer! As I was gardening I noticed a lone flower among the crazy weeds in the backyard.  It was once in a pot last summer, but it died in the heat.  How it got to the ground I do not know, but I moved it to the hanging basket above.  Flowers are a mystery to me sometimes. 

And, we finally have a bird's nest! Last year we had so many and I was looking for one this year! Here it is: 

I am grateful for these beautiful signs of life around me, and I cannot wait to see this fragile egg become a precious baby bird!
