And... We're Back In Business!


Yes, we're back without ever knowing why it was we suddenly couldn't upload an image from our computer. Then today, the little window and "browse" icon appear in the exact same place they had recently disappeared from, and... voila! Order is restored to the universe and I can go back to not posting on a semi-regular basis. As a reward for your patience please enjoy this photo of a faithful member of my breakfast club..

Oh Phooey.

This must change.

Uh-oh. I have lost the ability to post still photos, so I can't show you the hawk that showed up this morning, but here are the indomitable blue jays who were back the minute after the big guy took off.:   
 
 
Now please excuse me while I try to figure out why I can't post files from my desktop...

Christmas Eve Eve




...it will be the next holiday, wait and see!

We took a quick turn around the houses of renown on Sylvan Place; if they are less dazzling than in the past, we are not in a position to complain. I mean, look:

How sweet is that? A homemade, weatherproof diorama. On the lawn. Very old school, very cool.

It's time for another episode of Real Housefinches of Long Island...
 
Such drama. Now knock it off, there's plenty of room for two.
