This morning it seemed that all the Robins and Cedar Waxwings in Texas were visiting my back yard. And they sure did appreciate my little pond I built in summer. Here they are sharing a little sip from the pond. The water level was a little low so when they left I filled it up with some rainwater from my tanks.

Aren’t they just the sweetest birds? According to the books Robins live year round in eastern Texas. Now I am in Central Texas, so I assume they came for a Saturday picnic. The Cedar Waxwings are just here for the winter and have been appreciating the berries from my Youpon Holly tree. They showed their happiness by pooping the berries all over the driveway!

It’s 71 degrees today and their giving us a 90% chance of rain Tuesday night. I can’t wait.
