Black-headed Grosbeak 5-6-09The Black-headed Grosbeaks have returned to Sycamore Canyon...
...and the baby Gambel's Quail have hatched...
...while collarded lizards prowl my flowerbeds...
...and Gus had his angiogram yesterday. They found that all of his arteries are CLEAR! Yay! The stress test was a false positive. We were home by noon and exhausted but happy. I sang the Hallelujah Chorus all the way home in the car. LIFE is happening here in Sycamore Canyon. Now I can finally write about the adventures of the New River Birding Festival.

Hi Kathie, it sounds like you all had a great time in West Virginia but I'm sure it's nice to be home and to water those plants and check on your birds and lizards. Good to see you back. I've taken a blog hiatus but am back and ready to write again.
Wonderful pictures and even more wonderful news. Please say hi and Go Sox to Gus.
I'm so so so happy for you and Gus. I know you were worried while away.
So very happy about Gus and his angiogram!
And your garden is full of life! Happy spring!
Good, better, bestest! So glad you can have a heart at ease again.
I am so happy for you Kathie, such a relief to hear Gus' good news I am sure. Great photos as always.
Oh Kathie I am so happy for you, that is fantastic news, you must be thrilled. I loved the photos too.
Oh Kathie (and Gus of course!) that is good news indeed. Although whoever read that wrong should get his/her glasses checked - and nice to celebrate with some cool birds!
That's just the BEST news Kathie! Now you and Gus can relax.

So glad you have good news. Looks like nature is celebrating with you. Great pictures.
That's wonderful news, Kathie. You both must be so relieved. Blessings to you both. (Oh, and love the photo of that Grosbeak... and the baby Quails!)
Glad to hear that Gus is well.
Saw a similar grossbeak in the canyon, but no collared lizards darn it. Look forward to the festival pics.
Beth, so glad to have you back in the blogosphere!
Doug, nice to see you! I've passed your message on to Gus. He watched the game while I blogged tonight and they won!

Bobbie, thank you and yes, my garden and my life are full of Life!

Deborah, after fighting the procedure tooth and nail the results were such a relief that we are now glad he went through it.
Lynne, thank you!
Katdoc, I'm working on it. Xavier will be here tomorrow and he is spending the night, so I have limited blogging time while he is here but I will do my best. I have one post done and one set to post on Tuesday and I haven't even gotten to the festival part yet!
Hey Beth, nice to see you! I can't wait to read your posts either!
Wren, I can only hope they won't disappoint!
NCWoman, thank you! I will try!
Carol, thank you!

Heather, aren't those baby quail irresistable?
Thanks Gaelyn. I love the lizards! I think I now have 3 of them hanging around my block wall!
Great blog
