green jay - The Greenjay is a very pretty but noisy bird.
I noticed the other day one of my airplane plants has a new shoot coming off of it. We almost always have birds around here year round. We have also been visited by green jays already this year. I am attaching a picture of one that I took in November. I hope you can see it in the tree since it blends in so well.

Yummy, cherry tomatoes. I love them and I wish you all the luck with them, I know you can do it. As for the green jay, it is noisy. When I hear it I have to look and see if it is a green jay or a squirrel out there chattering at something. hahaha

I wonder if it's because of global warming, with the weather warming up, even mother nature herself is a tad confused at what is going on and in total confusion the birds and the living plants seem to flourish when normally they would still be in their slumber or keeping warm well away from the elements! I think Spring has definitely come early because our Winters are much more milder, we haven't seen hardly any snow at all which makes a great difference too!

I do agree with you. I dont think that there is any doubt. It is also the pollution and chemicals that have been placed into our environment. Combining it all, nature is confused. It will continue to get even more weird....even if they make changes, it would take a long time and not undo all the damage....Appreciate your response!

Here in Oregon it is still cold and I dont care to even go outside. I do love spring but I know we wont even see the signs of it till march. usually when the cherry trees blossom then we know it will be spring soon. I love those trees they are so beautiful and it usually puts a smile on my face.

It started raining today and has been raining most of the day. 7 miles down the road they have not had any rain. We had a down pour at 7:30am, and my friend who lives 7 miles away did not get a drop. Daisy May did well at her surgery. She did not show any aggression at all. I am so proud of her she was such a good girl.

No, the seasons are not confused. This is being caused by a thing, in Alaska, called HAARP. ( http://www.haarp.net/ )The HAARP "scientists" are changing the weather patterns and have been for quite a while now. Scary if you ask me. How do you think Katrina happened or the other unseasonal weather effects throughout the world? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haarp http://www.bariumblues.com/haarp1.htm Oh yeah, I can not forget the chemtrails being sprayed on us. http://www.ehow.com/how_2199866_there-chemtrails-over-home-city.html?ref=fuel&utm_source=yahoo&utm_medium=ssp&utm_campaign=yssp_art This news is not really news. It just has to be sought after. Truth is a powerful thing indeed.

It does seem to do this when the weather has a few warm days.. The weather can confuse nature.. I love to see the flowers popping out of the ground but I son't like to see a good hard frost kill them and that does happen.. Spring isn't here yet, but it is on it's way..
