Morning Chorus

Most mornings I arise between 5:30 and 6:00 am.  And this is what greets me:

I call this my Morning Halleluiah chorus.  They spend about a half hour singing praises and then go on about their daily chore of finding food.  It's a great way to wake up.  It would be interesting to know how many different bird voices are included in this masterpiece.

Stash Report 5/22/11

I'm working on 4 charity quilts and some blocks for the guild BOM program and they're using up fabric!
Here are my numbers:

Used/Donated & Cut this week: 4.33 yards
Used/Donated Yr to date: 33.20 yards
Added this wk: 0.0 yards
Total Yr to date Added: -3.5 yards
-------------------------------------------
Total Yr to date Use: 30.15 yards

Hey!  That number is getting better.  Went from 20 to 30 in a lot less time than the first 10.

Go over to Judy's post at Patchwork Times and see how others are doing.
