Weekly Bird in the Hand

Here is this week's 'bird in the hand' - the things I am grateful for this past week:

• having time to share with friends - for coffee, lunch and a bottle of champagne!
• seeing a pileated woodpecker on our grape vines (unfortunately he was eating the grapes - but he still looked good!)

• my friend Angie whose birthday it was this week
• the offer of friends to take care of our pet parrot Harold when we go away for 6 weeks in the New Year
• good medical news about my Uncle Dave
• my two nephews both being awarded a school prize
• having fun with my silver birds after being influenced by my cartooning.

Hope your week was full of great things too.
