BIFOLD TO BUNNY

(We picked up the Falcon from the auction hall and I drove it surreptitiously to the garage in Toronto. Still no ownership papers, though, so that bird has to stay in the nest for a while yet...)

One of the last bits in the Toronto reno was putting bifold doors on the main clothes closet. I should have done this when the hardwood floor was put in last summer, because now the nice new baseboard trim had to be ripped off where the doors would fold. Other glitches were an opening that was not a standard size, and a city-wide search for a size that could be persuaded to fit. It's now a much more finished look and you never know who is going to come out of the closet. Next job --- trying to level chair legs!

 It's time to open up and restock The View, but the snow is still so deep we have to trudge up like pack animals. The first flowers have appeared in the warm zones, and the pond is daring me to try walking on thin ice. Up on the roof, the extreme cold of the winter has damaged the chimney seal, but you get an awesome eagle-eye view of the bush.

Speaking of birds --- there have been brown creepers, juncos, hawks, jays and the notorious wild turkeys. Where did they spend the winter?? Squirrels, raccoons, and deer have also come by --- as curious about us as vice-versa. Sunrise is as magnificent as ever and what's unusual is how far north the sun is already, when there's still so much snow on the ground.

Maybe that's why we have seen  both white and brown rabbits--- which one will get the big gig next Sunday?
