Gardens and lonely eggs...

   The rain finally held off long enough for me to get all of my gardens weeded and planted!! It looks sooooo much better now, and will look even better once they start to grow and bloom!!! My hands are now a big, huge mess, but totally worth all the work (and money) that it took!!


     While I was down at the back of the yard cutting the grass, a little flash of color caught my eye. I bent down to see what it was and realized that it was a blue robins egg!!! Not sure why the sight of an abandoned egg makes me feel a little sad..(probably b/c I think that the mom bird is wondering where her future hatchling is..)...so I took it over to the neighbours bird house tree and plopped it into one of the houses. Now...I'm trying to convince myself that one of those mommy birds will think that that egg is theirs and sit on it...or I just did something really dumb!! Oh well.....I'm trying to give this little baby a fair chance....we'll see that comes out of that house in awhile!!!
