Squatter

This starling (I think that's what it is) took over a hole that a northern flicker made a couple of weeks ago.  It seems to have made it home. Maralee

Orchid

I have four orchid plants. One blooms regularly but the other three hadn't bloomed since I first got them about 3 years ago.  Until now.  This year two of the others bloomed.  I'm still waiting for the fourth.  This is one of the new blooms. Maralee
