Birds and the Bees.

This morning I got the kids off to school, checked for any new seedlings and then decided to sit back enjoy myself.   Sitting on the porch no one else up or moving that I could see, I watched the Bees  buzzing around the Lilac.  Occasionally one one fly up and "stare" at me before going back to the blossoms.   The birds were wide awake and i had several robins poaching worms in the yard.   As I sat I noticed a  slight movement, keeping an eye on that spot in the yard I saw a pretty decently good sized garden snake.  Of course when it saw me it raised it head and watched me as long as I watched it. After several moments of mutual staring we both went back to what ever it was we were doing.  I watched the bees, it looked for breakfast.  Sometime during all this a small black cat appeared and lounged on the porch.    All in all a good start to any day.
