Guess what I saw today, coming home from Fond du Lac??? Right next to the golf course on the way out of town, I saw a kingfisher! It was on the wire by the side of the road in quite busy traffic!I haven't seen a kingfisher in years and it was in the wild, not on the edges of a fairly larger town! How cool is that?
Here are a couple of finished items:

Large Toile Bag
Small Cotton Bag

I haven't seen a kingfisher in years. Would have been another variety.
In my backyard I have these tiny California quail. The other day at work I saw a huge quail. I don't even know what kind it was. But, it couldn't be the same kind that live in my yard.
For a few years, we had a kingfisher that visited our backyard every day, first, he would sit on the wire, near the culvert and watch the creek. Then later in the day, he would perch on a tall post ,again near the water, and watch for prey. He was very patient,,,and would stare at the water for a looooong time and then SWOOP! I have not seen him this year. Michele
