This morning we had a tiny casualty - not a fatality thank goodness.  A Golden Crowned Kinglet.  It is only four inches in length and so delicate.  The poor thing hit the window but landed on the cushioned settee underneath.  I wrapped it loosely in a towel, but had its head exposed so that it knew how to get out, and by the time we got back from groceries it was gone, leaving the inevitable poop in the towel...happy ending!

Last week was exceptionally busy for me, celebrating my birthday all week long with those closest to me and having a very special birthday lunch with my Mom.  Dear hubs had the best party for me on Saturday with closest friends and although it might sound trite, it really was the best birthday celebration ever!

I am working on expanding my inventory, getting ready for the Christmas Market in Durham and for the Saugeen Artists' store in Hanover, both of which will be for most of November and December.  Hopefully it will be a success for all of us who are participating at both venues!

It is another fine, mild autumn day.  The fog has lifted, the drizzle ended and no matter that the sun is not out.  The ponds' immersed rocks and edges are crowded with frogs and the feeders are alive with birds.  There is still so much colour in the gardens, but muted with stark white Japanese anemones here and there and the creamy white of Royal Frosting daylily.
