ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, David and Miriam! I am so thankful to have found your blog. It has brightened my life.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you all as well. I love the way the Cardinal's picture changes color as I mouse over the photo - well done. PS. I have been to Waterloo a few times when I studied at McMaster - lovely city.
ReplyDeleteMy son-law graduated from McMaster as a mechanical engineer and I have a grandson two years from university who wants to do the same thing. We sometimes go birding at Coote’s Paradise, right next to the campus. And we regularly visit the DesJardins Canal in Dundas.

ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you.
ReplyDeleteIk wens je eveneens een fijne kerst en een goed 2024 David.
ReplyDeleteI hope your Christmas was delightful. You asked about the harness and it is important for keeping Charlie safe in the car. I have a doggy seatbelt that is intended to attach to harness in order to distribute the pressure evenly if I have to stop quickly. Attaching it to his collar would be hazardous to his neck.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas to you both.
ReplyDeleteMike.
The red cardinal is so cute - I wish we had them here!
ReplyDeleteI hope you and Miriam had a peaceful Christmas and I wish both of you happiness, good health and laughter for 2024 (and many many bird sightings). Hugs, Carola
I hope you've enjoyed a Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteMy good wishes for the coming New Year.
All the best Jan
