Looking out my patio window just now I saw so many different birds visiting my yard eating the birdseed I had put out.  Previous to today there had been only a flock of Chickadees and occasionally a robin but today many different kinds descended at once together! It seemed as if someone had created a flyer advertising a free lunch in my yard!  That thought inspired today’s poem 🙂

Smiley Face on a Hill

Happy Face Hill

Traveler’s delight to see

Nature smiling

Haiku

I actually happened to see this while

my daughter and I were driving back from the Oregon Coast!

Near Willamina, OR. I spotted what looked to be a big happy face high on the hill to my right.

“Is that a Happy Face up there on that hill?” I asked my daughter who replied “It sure looks like it!”

After stopping to take a picture she did an internet search and found an amazing story regarding the Big Smiley which you can read by clicking this link:

Yellow Flowers

Curious encounter

Of yellow bursts of color

Blooming near the creek

Haiku

I recently came upon these big yellow blooms as I was walking near a small creek. They were just scattered about on the creek’s bank. I am not sure what they are, probably some kind of a lily. They sure brightened up my morning walk!

(If any of you know what they are please let me know in the comment section. Thanks)
