Our cherry tree is in full bloom, but it lasts only a few days each year. The titmouse has made a nest in the bluebird bird house. They are kind birds unlike sparrows. I bought another bluebird house an set it up about 30 yards away. I hope they find their new home.

This is really, really special. The bg color just brings this home. Could easily be a Chinese vase!

How very fortunate to have both such a splendid tree, and such an adorable tenant.

Maria is right, it is so like a Chinese ink painting - and the smoothness of the bird is integral to that. I take back my comment! Delighted to see this on the front page..
