Sharing our view...

live in the basement so our view is a bit limited. We also live in the city, so wildlife is a bit sparse. But I thought I would share a few of the things we see from our window on a regular basis. (Keep in mind these photos were taken through the screen on our window.)

This is a normal, and fun, sight from our window. Tyler and Daddy made this funny Squirrel feeder that looks like a table and chairs. We have had lots of fun watching these cute guys this year. This particular Squirrel is one of several babies that were born in our eaves earlier this Spring.




These little House Sparrows are plentiful outside our window. There always seems to be a crew of them nibbling on the seeds in the feeder and on the ground around it. Tyler and Daddy made this bird feeder as well.



We also have plenty of these guys outside our window... in a wide array of colors and patterns. Pigeons galore!!


That's about it for our view.... other than a glimpse of a Cardinal now and then. I hope you enjoyed looking out our window with us!


In other news:
  • Our socks did not sprout. Disappointing, but we'll try it again in the Fall!
  • We got our microscope today!! So far we have looked at paper, salt, human hair, tap water, cheek cells, a dollar bill, and a penny. I can't wait to get out and get some pond water to peek at! Until then we'll be running around the house like crazy people looking for things to look at under our microscope!
  • We discovered Minneapolis Public Radio today. They have a Classical music station! If you live in the Twin Cities it is at 99.5 FM. We are loving it in the car!
