My Life On The River


 Bluebirds
 

March will be here in a few days, and thats when I clean up my Bluebird houses...Field mice are bad around here, and they move into the nest boxes for the winter. I go around and remove any mice, and make sure the nest box is in good shape for the birds to move into.
If you would like to attract Bluebirds now is the time to buy or build houses, and get them up.
Birdbaths are also great for attracting Bluebirds since they love to bath.
Bluebirds like their nest to be around open meadows, pasture, orchards or on the edges of your yard. The box should only be around 5' off the ground, and facing to the south or east if possible.
The houses are easy to make if you enjoy working with wood, and building your own.... we made a lot of ours. Its a good winter project. You can get on the internet, and get all the information you need to build one.

 Kingston Trio
 


Ok, I hope this works. youtube has been giving me a lot of trouble today!

The Kingston Trio is an American folk and pop music group that helped launch the folk revival of the late 1950s to early 1960s, and continued to thrive as an acoustic group despite the increasing dominance of rock and roll.

"Worried Man"




"The Reverend Mr. Black"


This song was first recorded by the Kingston Trio.
They Call the Wind Mariah

 Last nights Lunar eclipse
 

So did you see the eclipse last night?
I love viewing the Moon, and last night the Moon was beautiful! Totally full. Then the eclipse started.
It was below zero here, so viewing it from outside was not gonna happen by me anyway.
Here are the pictures I took from inside my house where it was warm!

When the eclipse started we had some thin clouds, and that made this photo a bit fuzzy.












Full Lunar Eclipse!
