The little ones return
After the storm was over, the first thing I did was to clean all the limbs and mess off the ltttle patio out back where I feed the critters. I worried so much about them during the storm. I put food and clean water out for them and anxiously waited to see if any of them would return. Within an hour the doves were back feeding, two squirrels were feeding, and a beautiful male cardinal! When I saw that my heart rejoiced that somehow they had survived! By yesterday a lot more doves were there eating and going about their lives as usual. It was so uplifting to see life would go on for all of them. It definitely gave me hope in the debris of so much loss.
