What's going on in your back yard ?

So have you ever taken a stroll around your own back yard? My friend and I like to do that and see what is happening in our own backyards. My pond is in full swing and it is starting to shape up rather well I must say. So I love to tinker around my yard and pond. I recently got back from vacationing on the ocean and I picked up some nice big shells and thought they might be cute nestled around my pond. I LOVE the ocean and summertime, it makes me crazy with all kinds of craft project ideas.
So recently I have had quite a busy little wren in my yard and I think he has been busy looking for some real estate to settle down and have another summer brood. Now I have not had wrens in my yard as regular visitors until this summer. So I thought I better get a wren box... Now I couldn't just put up a plain old wren box. I had to bedazzle it. I purchased the wren box and bought some sea glass and glued the pieces to the roof . I think it turned out adorable. I hope Mrs. Wren likes it! I even made a little sign to advertise "for Wrent" I hope I get a taker!!!
My friend gave me some frogs and I think they have decided to take up permanent residency. I just love my pond . It is so relaxing to sit out and listen to the waterfall and watch all the animals that visit your pond, so HAPPY ! So you need to get out into your yard and do some investigating you may be pleasantly surprised by what you find.

I hope you have a great week and get to get out and enjoy summer.

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken. ~James Dent
