Indigo Bunting
I am still being entertained and amazed by my friends eating at my feeders.i have all my daily birds too. Over on the pond bank I beheld Astrid’s birthday tree. Her parents gave her this Redbud tree and a Pink Dogwood in April ‘25. She planted the Redbud by the pond and the Dogwood to the south of her house where it’d have shade. The Redbud is a special type,
a Forest Pansy Redbud. It is known for its heart-shaped leaves that are a glossy, deep purple-red in the spring, and a maroon to purple-green color by summer. It’s a gorgeous tree.I wish I had remembered that today was May 1. I go to the grocery store on Friday. The store was full of poor people who get checks on the first. They are having a difficult time. It made me ill and teary. Poor people need help. Everyday is worse. Hamburger was 6.99 a pound. Gas was up again. Lord, have mercy on us.

I grew up in Oklahoma, with the redbud it's state tree. But I've seen more redbuds in Kansas! Linda
Those are some beautiful visitors! Gas is 3.99 a gallon here just today...yesterday it was 3.69. I am always thankful that we have the means for medications and groceries as so many people cannot make it on what they are earning or in retirement.
Oh my gosh! You have the most beautiful birds at your feeder! I see nothing but mynahs, doves and pigeons... lots and lots of pigeons.
Those are gorgeous birds! I don't know how people are making it with the prices the way they are. :(
