Dear “Contessa” Friends,
We have gathered our first four (4) issues of:
Birds and Blooms….and they are ready for your viewing if you would like some uplifting reading for our rain marathon today and tomorrow. We are happy to drop them by your house today. Great photos and helpful bird identification and proper feeding info. And where to find and photograph these birds. Spring especially is the perfect time to bird watch with the children or your senior live-in’s. Inexpensive and enlightening weekend entertainment.
Seriously….. we can drop these four copies off by Noon today, just give us a buzz. We are close by, so no problem. You too can enjoy what we enjoy reading every month. In one weeks time, we can pick them up and pass to our next birdwatcher fans.
“Contessa” says….perfect for a very rainy weekend.
Enjoy!

- We phoned the visitors center this morning, March 6th at 8:30 am. The bluebells are not yet “awake.” But if you have interest in going…. call and check with the Park Ranger in about ten days time.

First signs of spring are these lovely blossoms. In town here in Alexandria, VA we already see some Crocus, Daffodils and Tete-a-tete blooming, but out in nature, covered by leaves and branches it will take a little more time for these lovely blossoms to poke up. When they do….it’s magical and very much worth it…,to take a day and visit. It will fill your soul with “Hope” for this springtime arrival.
“Contessa” says….. it’s a very lovely thing to do!

Our spring native seed catalog has arrived. We are happy to lend. Just give us a call and we can drop it off. Some very nice grouping selections. Prairie Moon is very reputable, with tenure in the seed business, and in fact most of these seeds are found at the family farm in Marshall County, Iowa.
This copy is 48 pages….and in full color
We are happy to lend to you for one week. We can then pick it up and pass to our next interested seed enthusiast.
Enjoy!
