    Oh my goodness, what a beautiful bird! We love bright colored birds.

  2. Margret Abbott – I am a wife, mother of 3, mother in law of 3, and grandma of 8 The important things in my life are my relationship with the Lord, my family, friends, and pets. I am active in my little country church. I love to read, create whimsical Fairy and critter garden spots and spend time with family and friends. Our pups along with Graham and Gus Kitties have been entertaining folks with their antics so I thought it would be fun to devote a blog to them.

    Sandee,

    What a colorful, cheery feathered friend! Now, that’s really nice to see on this dreary rainy Monday. Thanks for the splash of color to my morning filling my heart with a rainbow and a grin. 🙂 Have a wonderful day, my friend!

  5. foguth – Though Jeanne began her career technical writing, her love of romantic-suspense, whether it be present, future or in an unknown galaxy inspired her to write the novels she wanted to find in bookstores. Since marrying, Jeanne and her husband have lived from the arctic to the tropics, as well as from yacht to off-grid mountain home. She loves using vivid colors and flowing shapes in her oil paintings as well as creating edible landscapes. At present, she is finishing writing the Chatterre Trilogy and working on a new episode for The Sea Purrtector Files. You can always find out what she is working on and/or contact her at: www.jeannefoguth.com.

  6. Deborah – South San Francisco, CA – I am a Wise Woman who has been on a spiritual journey for many years. My wisdom was not gained through a higher education but through the University Of Life and all the insight, knowledge gained through the pain of trials and tribulations on the path of weeping to healing. Though I have come a long way, I am not done yet! I still have much wisdom to gain, more growth through pain, and the beauty of spirit that come by continual shedding of the old to receive the new! Sweet Blessings!
    Deborah says:

    That birds coloring is like artwork! Beautiful pick Sandee! Have a wonderful Monday and week! Hugs! 🙂 <3

  7. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    That’s just the splash of colour we needed today, absolutely beautiful! Happy Monday Sandee and thanks for hosting ❤😻❤

    Terrific photo! The North American varieties (at least way up here in the Great White North) are not such a striking blue! I had to look him up.
    And Marv and Kozmo went to Mars, not because Perseverance landed there this week, but because I did not come up with a decent Dad Joke. I was procrastinating and started on the horoscopes and at the NASA site I found the photo booth! Thanks for the Hop and visiting us! Have a marvellously happy day!

    Hi there Baby Girl, How’s everything goin’ with you? Been sick with the flu and it really got me down this time. So tired all the time and there’s so much to do around the house. My daughter has been trying to help me, but there seems like there’s just an over abundance of things to do. Whew! I get so tired so fast….plus I’ve been so depressed about my blog not being able to figure things out. I’ve been looking for a place that doesn’t cost so much, but haven’t found any yet…. cuz this blogspot has been driving me nuts. Cathy has been trying to help me, but I guess our minds just doesn’t jive or something, but we did get a little lee way together last night so we’ll see. Cathy has done so much for me trying to keep my blog. She’s really a sweetheart for sure. We’ve known each other a while. She’s been on Monday’s Moves me with me a long time. Anyway, time for bed. Hope all is well with you sweetie… how you & family doing? Great I hope. Well, sending you a big hug and a smooch to go with it. Love ya…. HUGS, Marie
