Sunday

Yesterday was a glorious sunny day in Marin. We have been having some very warm weather so early in the year. It was 85 degrees on Friday. I went out and bought my self a fan as there is no air conditioning in my apartment. It was time to put away my down comforter for the season. I was really warm trying to sleep under all those feathers last night!

My nephew, Joe Mc Cormick and I took Dave and Nancy out to lunch Sunday to celebrate Dave's birthday. It was a great restaurant. My plate was very fancy ... I had a "Tower of Vegetables" and it really was a tower created by sauteed veggies stacked one upon another. It made for a very colorful and fun meal and healthy, too.

The Wreath I Found on the Hill
I had taken a walk before lunch as I had arrived early at the restaurant. I climbed up a very steep hill and was rewarded to find a lovely manzanita wreath just sitting in the grass. I decided to take it home with me so I hiked on down the hill, wreath in hand.

When I got home, I hung the wreath outside my bathroom window on my deck. If you look carefully at the photo above, you can see some "stuff" in the vent pipe above the window.


A Oak Titmouse Nest

This darling little grey bird with a tufted top knot has built a nest right above my bathroom window. She is quite vocal and has a buddy or two helping her create this home for her eggs. In the morning sometimes when I am on the "throne" I look out I see her as she is sitting there on the top of the open window. I get to watch the whole process. Apparently, this place has been used for a nest for over 20 years. The previous tenant loved birds and loved this little Titmouse and her families. I think I will, too!
