This is a painted iron blue jay that sits above a bell in my front yard. Occasionally, real feathered scrub jays dance around this guy, trying to get his attention.
...because our quilts are a reflection of the times in which we live.

Colors of the Garden
This morning my little students and I were reading about why trees lose their leaves in autumn. Their first question after reading the story was why the trees in Central California still have most of their leaves even though we are approaching December. I explained to them that we are still having warm and sunny weather. My garden is still producing beans and peppers. There are turnips, kale, cilantro, carrots, brussel sprouts, broccoli and celery on the way. We haven't seen a hint of frost.

ReplyDeleteThanks for all of the sweet comments. I am finally getting used to the camera I got almost a year ago.
