Thankful Thursday: Birds, May 31, 2018

Thankful Thursday, Little Things Thursday,
And on Saturday, I'd Rather B Birdin' and Saturday's Critters

Today I am thankful for simple pleasures!
Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 30, 2018
When I came home yesterday from playing Bingo with other senior citizens at the Community Center, two Cardinals and an Indigo Bunting were on my bird feeder.

An Eastern Phoebe was perched nearby.

And a Woodpecker was preening its feathers in the top of a tree. I just sat in my car for a few minutes, counting my blessings!

It is hard to believe, but that brilliant blue sky soon disappeared to be replaced by a severe thunderstorm later in the afternoon. Then just before dark, the sun was out again!

The senior citizen Bingo games are free so the prizes are small, but we have a lot of fun! I won a box of Kleenex tissues, and my friend Jan won hand lotion. Then we ate lunch at a new café in town with three other ladies from the Bingo group. Thankful for simple pleasures!

Have a blessed day!

    The indigo bunting we do not see here, but we do have cardinals, especially more noticeable in the winter when they come to feeders. This time of year you take feeders down, lest you attract bears.

    Sweet birdies! Love the preening woodpecker. I just read today that people are instinctively impressed by other people who preen just a bit, like smoothing their lapel, etc.
