Birds

Birds all over the place!  These are goldfinches and pine siskins waiting for me to finish with filling the feeders!  They actually flew right over my head to get to the seed.  Lots of pine siskins this year - highly unusual.  They arrive in a flock at the feeder and wipe it out every day around 12 noon.
Other birds at the feeder:  Cardinals, nuthatches, chickadees, juncos, carolina wrens, titmouses, mourning doves.

Snow Today!

Yesterday was flooding and rain. Well today is snow!

MY WORK BENCH

Yup, that is my inside the house work area.  Not much room - kiln, grinder, etc are all in my outside workshop.  It is cold out there! I was firing last week when it was 12º!.

Okay, explanations of inside work area:  DH is at his computer in one of these pix.  The vest on the back of my chair is a woman's flyfishing vest. Ready at a moment's notice. The small desk is an old manicurists desk with it's own light and bakelite accents and top. The rest of my work area is overflowing as you can see!  But believe it or not, I do have space for creating.
