Friday Foto Friends: Just a Quick Bear Update




Image result for a picture of a leprechaunGood Morning!!! Happy St. Patrick's Day!  I hope you are wearing the green today, or I'll have to come pinch you!  :)  I made sure I had on green as soon as I got up, because the people in my house love to have excuses to pinch...  LOL.  












Here are a few pictures of shamrocks that I just found in my yard as I walked around this morning:
 This one was peeking up at me from inside a pot where my green pepper plant is growing!  How lucky is that???  :)

 And these two pictures were actually taken in The Secret Garden!  They just popped up to surprise me and be an extra little blessing to us today!


Yesterday I mentioned that my wisteria vine /blossoms got hit by the freeze we had the other evening. So I went to check on them today to see if there is any sign of new buds forming...and guess what?  Here they are:

 The buds that are sticking out or up are the new buds that apparently were not hurt, so, yes!! It appears there will be new blossoms coming soon!!! That brought a big smile to my face!


Also yesterday I showed pictures of bear footprints in my yard, and pictures of a bear from a week ago walking through our yard at night.  This morning we saw some new footprints, so I checked the nite camera again, and this time we did get pictures of the bear as he came for a drink at the "pool"...

Since today is Friday Foto Friends Day, I thought this would be a great opportunity to share those new pictures with you...We will name this bear St. Paddy, in honor of St. Patrick's Day today:




Bye Bye St. Paddy!  Thanks for visiting!!!


Here's an Irish Prayer to bless your day:

And then here is the traditional "Irish Blessing"


So, until we meet again, "May God hold you 
in the palm of His hand."  
Amen!

  6. I shared your bear footprint pics with our grands and they were fascinated that you have bears at your house. Hope your wisteria survived. I noticed yesterday that ours is just beginning to bud. Thanks for sharing today. Hope you have a great weekend!
