Early Morning

It's a quiet Easter morning. While I rejoice in the fact that Christ is risen, I still deal with my sadness because of my husband's death.  But I sorrow not as one who has no hope.

This morning I watched a small flock of starlings at my critter log, eating the peanut butter-honey-raisin-birdseed mixture from the holes in it.  Birds pecking at the food in the holes have widened and enlarged the holes a great deal.  I didn't think starlings could sit on the smooth sides of this hanging log but they are doing quite well.  They flutter their wings a lot but they manage to get the food.  Woodpeckers and nuthatches have no trouble anywhere on the log.
