Hooray! Time for a Giveaway


Well it has been such a long time since I had a giveaway. So today I am having one and you are all invited! I love these little fabric baskets so much that I wanted someone else to have one too. All you have to do is drop on by my blog and just say hello between now and Sunday night at midnight. Stop by as many times as you wish. On Monday's post I will announce the winner. I will once again ask my dear neighbor Annette to pick a number. Good luck everybody. Oh, and sorry but the yarn is not included!
Well now on to some other stuff. Isn't this the most amazing azalea. It was in the little town of Steilacoom were my mother-in-law lives. We were on our way home from shopping and I just had to stop and take a pic. For once I had my camera with me!This little bird is a Ruby Crowned Kinglet. He is quite difficult to photograph as he is very timid and flits about a lot. We spotted him last weekend while out for a walk.
Mr Owl was still sitting up in his tree. This time we were able to get a good unobstructed view of him. Still haven't seen the baby yet, maybe this weekend we will be lucky.

Well that's it for today. Once again good luck to everyone. I wish you all could win.
See you soon.

Some lovely little (and not so little) birds again. You really have some fantastic wildlife. I have a penpal who lives in PA and she has some lovely wildlife visiting her garden.

Love all the signs of spring time around your place! You always seem to capture bird life so beautifully.

Beautiful azalea. I love them and they don't grow well here, so I have to be content with pictures that my friends send me.

Please enter me in your drawing and if one of your creatures fell into the bag, that would be OK.

Your photos are so great, once again! I am amazed at what you see on a daily basis! The bag is lovely, too...it would make anyone happy, I'm sure!

I love the bag, it is beautiful.
I am very envious of your creature especially the great horned owl. We don't see them in the city.

You guys always get the best bird picture. I just love birds and nature walks. We need to get together and do one sometime in the near future. I think we only live about 2 hours away.

I must do my daily check in - am I persistent or am I a pest??

Dianne said...

Gorgeous bag! Amazing pics also, especially the daylight pic of the owl!

Louise said...

That Azalea puts mine to shame! The owl is a treat to see, I love owls, how they turn their head full circle! And I love that little bird, rather like our Goldcrest, they flit too. I am in awe of your photos, they are great! So is the storage bag, I covet those when I see them on blogs. Thank you for the opportunity of winning one, I'd love to be entered into your giveaway. x
