How cool to have a marsh right in the backyard.<BR/><BR/>As for the mushrooms and dollar - there is a way to fold a dollar bill so that the "mushroom" appears. <BR/>Try folding the upper 1/3 of the bill lengthwise so that the top of Washington's head rests on the lower 1/3 - his neck. Hard to explain, but it makes a mushroom. I learned that one when I was around 11 and it still gives me a kick to ask people to find the mushroom on the dollar bill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30103302.post-32328345834191533182008-05-23T15:41:00.000-04:002008-05-23T15:41:00.000-04:00If only they were Portabellos..sigh :)I enjoyed yo...If only they were Portabellos..sigh :)<BR/><BR/>I enjoyed your pics, thank you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698117410778232102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30103302.post-64280550744353046912008-05-22T09:29:00.000-04:002008-05-22T09:29:00.000-04:00Earl--me too.

I'm wearing shorts today in spite of temps in the low 50s--I'm in denial.<BR/><BR/>DCup--glad you enjoyed it. I want to see an indigo bunting! They never come to my feeders; I have to go look for them.<BR/><BR/>Lynne--you so crazy! Yeah, the backyard rocks--we fell in love with it instantly.<BR/><BR/>Fran--oooh, say it again!<BR/><BR/>NCWoman--luckily, traffic was minimal and I got off the main road quickly. Don't worry--I'm always careful.<BR/><BR/>KGMom--that's exactly what I think--looks like England (as I've seen in movies, anyway!).<BR/><BR/>Susan--every time I see the chairs out there, I think of you, me, and Laura sitting out there watching those Sharpies trying to get it on in mid-air. Sigh.<BR/><BR/>Rabbits' Guy--summer's coming! It has to!<BR/><BR/>Cindy--welcome to the bloggy! Yes, we spend a ton of time in the backyard. When it gets warmer, we even eat out there.dguzmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01811101661607351661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30103302.post-16792342575146588062008-05-22T00:36:00.001-04:002008-05-22T00:36:00.001-04:00What a great looking backyard!

It's so beautiful, but skittish.<BR/><BR/>The American Goldfinches have pretty much moved on, but now we're seeing more redwing blackbirds, and we even had a blue grosbeak which just sent me over the birdy moon.<BR/><BR/>I love the verdant look of everything. As I was driving through Pennsylvania and Virginia last weekend, everything looked so lush.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there, better gardening days are coming!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30103302.post-42433388419421688362008-05-21T10:44:00.000-04:002008-05-21T10:44:00.000-04:00I guess fog isn't so great for bird-watching, but ...I guess fog isn't so great for bird-watching, but I love the look of it, the feel of it, the <I>sound</I> of it (Does fog make a sound?
