Educating Risa

June is a very busy month for us, with a conference and live internet show for Jim, 2 mini-vacations for the family, and Daegan’s birthday—on top of our usual soccer and classes and playdates. We’ve got to get the rest of the garden in asap too if things will have a chance to bloom before frost—and we had snow again over the weekend! AND a filling broke last night while I was brushing my teeth; I just got back from the emergency appointment to fix it. Breathe, breathe….I’m feeling a bit in over my head and am going to take this week off from blogging to get caught up so we make it through the month! See you next Monday, June 7th. Until then, here’s a few pics I took while out birding on the weekend, as part of my Sabbath Manifesto.

White-faced ibis, one of the rarest birds in Alberta:

Barn Swallow:

And what I think is my best shot, photographically-speaking. It’s a better pic than in my field guide! A Killdeer:

Have a great week!
