A Feathery Face Wash

Last night we watched a doe and her young one drink from our little pond…that hasn’t been cleaned in 2 years and is pretty yucky water.   It was way down the" to do" list tho,   but we felt bad for the deer so moved it up the list to today.  Hope they appreciate it.  Filled with rain barrel water. ...We have one that will run here by gravity.. ( 2nd extra..Kirsten cleaning the pond.;..  what a help that one is.  She can't believe H never stops.   I think she walks /runs the island twice a day ..)  Also filled up the bird bath after seeing this bird take advantage of it for a bath...
The other extra photo is the bird…is it a pine sisken????   I wasn’t sure but know someone will know…has a very wet head, as you can appreciate in the main blip. 

Apparently Fiona was glad to go see her school altho it wasn't what she was expecting and she thot the "get to know you" games were dumb. 

Very cool today…we have lots of layers on and rain jackets because there were actually a few drops of rain!!  But alas, not enough to even dampen the dust!  My phone app says it’s going to start again in 1 minute.   Hummmm…...NOT yet.
