Change Is Hard

…but change is certain.

Orange smile

I know you saw my orioles already. But it’s early in the season and I’m sure you don’t mind seeing a better image of the youngster that’s hanging around. He’s not fully grown up yet, I figure he’s one of the babies from last season.

I’m young, but I’m still the most handsome dude around.

I’m glad he’s made it home, because he, and the rest of them, make me smile.

More exciting news, my hummingbird couple arrived at our feeder today. I’m sure I’ll have images to share soon. They’ll make you smile too, guaranteed.

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

    I love when people show us their Orioles. I never get them in Pennsylvania so I’m thrilled to see yours.
    Enjoy your day!

    I do not see many oriels, so seeing any, young or old, early season or not, is great 🙂

    I certainly don’t mind seeing more pictures of orioles. Exciting that a hummingbird has visited your feeder. None here yet but the feeders are out and ready.

    I have extra oranges on my grocery list and Grape Jelly too! They should be here in about ten days:) They sure are pretty!
