bird-watching

bird-watching beside the sliding glass doors has become a favorite family activity this spring. joe dug up an old poster he had, and we've all been admiring our birdie friends. learning their names, watching them, and now...even drawing them. sam is often found there, pointing and talking, watching intently. leif often corrects my misidentifications, referring me to his handy chart. it was fun watching him choose colors, picking up on the slightest tints of color within the whites, representing them with purples, blues, and grays. hmmm....i think i see a need for some real binoculars in our future (that aren't daddy's ;-) )....
