Welcome
back to my library!
You are correct, it has been a month since I
sent you a letter. I appreciate all who dropped by the library for a visit, looking to
see if I wrote a letter but forgot to tell you.
I finally have an
exciting story to share.
Wildlife
is always amazing to watch up close. In the past, I told you in detail about our
visiting rabbits, robins, quail, and brown tree squirrels. Remember
seeing our red-headed sapsucker who knocked himself out last summer
flying into the library window?
Yesterday's
visitor was awesome and I took pictures to show you!
As Craig
mowed the 'back forty', he noticed the bird. We usually see them
by the dozen resting on fence posts along I-5 watching for dinner.
This red-tailed hawk hid under a deodar cedar in an apparent state of
shock. The hawk made no attempt to fly away as Craig walked
closer to him. He looked so soft and friendly. I wanted to pet
him, but I forgot my gloves in the house.

| Isn't he cute? |

| Beautiful wings! |
Did you know red-tailed hawks fly in every state of the U.S.?
The
bird hospital is treating him now. When he recovers enough to come
home, I'll wear gloves and touch his beautiful feathers before we
release him into familiar surroundings.
Side note: From my
window, I see the daffodils up eight inches. When the leaves
first appear, they sprout up fast, don't they?

cup overflows with blessings.” Psalm 23:5
