Morning has broken
Like that first morning
Cardinals are singing
Mourning doves coo
I see from my window
Hummingbirds seeking
Nectar and dew
Thrush sings a love song
Praising the daylight
Finches echo the sunlight
With feathers of gold
Praise for the morning
Praise for God’s creatures
Of feather and fur
Love fills my soul
For all God’s creations
Beauty surrounds me
With color and light
Despite living in a world
Filled with conflict and strife
Peace fills my heart

Have to do the marathon clean as Eddie, Yvonne and Randy will be here this afternoon.
Completed the last page (for now) on the website. I’m really pleased with how it turned out.
Got Riley a new cage — not that he’s thrilled about it. This one has door catches that he can’t manipulate, so he can’t let himself out at will. Not that he ever did anything really bad — stripped all the leaves off the (already dying) ficus. Unlike Taji who destroyed everything in his path, Riley pretty much left things alone. He just terrorized the other birds by climbing on their cages and since the ‘tiels are sitting on a clutch of eggs, I really had to curtail that behavior. Billy and Whitney are being such good parents!

This is Tigger (new Whippet puppy) and Payne (one of the new Crested puppies) playing. They do pretty well together all things considered.
Well, got to get started or I’ll never get finished
Love to all,
Margaret
