Balloons and Birds

Jeremy built balloon puppets and skulls for Dia de Muertos at Thanksgiving Point again. We delivered the puppets the morning of the event then headed out to do some birding. We finished one site for our birding challenge and tried out a new birding spot.

We got our selfie. "Agh! The sun's in our eyes." We thought we'd get a better picture under the trees. We got distracted by a late season osprey, though. We weren't expecting to see one toward the end of October. We thought they'd all moved on.

For dinner that night we tried yet another new recipe from A Season of Family Meal Plans, volume 4, by Jordan Page. White Chicken Chili with Cheesy Garlic Rolls. Mmmm.

Since October 26 was National Pumpkin Day, we had pumpkin bars in the freezer that we finished off for this holiday.

What?

 

Catch of the Day- Osprey

Oh, look.  There's a bird flying.  I wonder what it is.  O.K.  See it in the camera.  Focus.  Focus.  Follow it.  And... click.
Let's look at the picture.  And... that's an osprey.  And it's in focus.
*Squeal*  Jeremy's going to be so proud of me.
