The Lizotte Finch Hotel

To me, the good Lord cannot be denied when you look at a new born baby, or the coming of spring. Spring when everything turns green, blossoms with pink, red, and yellow. People seem happier, nicer to each other, and reach out to help the wild life.
Every where you stop, people greet each other with, “boy that was a terrible winter, wasn’t it?” Or “this winter was a really long one wasn’t it?” One statement is just that; “I am so glad Spring is here.”
Fran has been so busy planting trees, pruning shrubs, putting out grub-go away stuff, and a multitude of other things in the yard.
The other day we went “to town” and arrived at a farm store that has seed and bird feeders for one thing. We bought the cutest bird feeder for finches. It is a three story feeder that you fill with thistle seed from the top. As you fill, it fills the bottom story etc. Those finches go crazy for it. They kick out the seed or try to crack it and the wild birds feed on the ground for the seed the finches spilled.
Doves especially love finch leftovers.
We sit out on our screened in porch, watch the birds and visit about them with smiles on our faces and feel the soft breeze on our skin as the sun warms not only us but also the grass, trees, and flowers. Oh how welcome Miss Spring is!
