TEA IN THE GARDEN ON SATURDAY WITH BERNIDEEN....#7

I WAS GOING TO HAVE TEA IN THE GARDEN WITH MY DAUGHTER JACKIE, UNTIL IT STARTED RAINING. SO ALL MY PLANS WERE CHANGED, AND WE HAD IT INSIDE.

MY GRANDDAUGHTER JENNA WAS ALSO INVITED, BUT SHE HAD OTHER PLANS.
A POT OF EARL GREY
I MADE A DELICIOUS PUNCH WITH ORANGE JUICE, PEACH JUICE, CUT UP ALL KINDS OF FRUIT, AND GINGERALE...IT WAS VERY GOOD.
BEFORE JENNA LEFT SHE JOINED US IN A GLASS OF PUNCH.

THE COMMON SANDPIPER

SANDPIPERS ARE FAMILIAR BIRDS THAT ARE OFTEN SEEN RUNNING NEAR THE WATER'S EDGE ON BEACHES AND TIDAL MUD FLATS. THE COMMON SANDPIPER HAS A BROWN UPPER BODY AND WHITE UNDERSIDE. WHEN AT REST ITS WINGTIPS REACH HALFWAY BACK TO ITS TAIL.

SANDPIPERS ARE MOST LIKELY SEEN POKING IN THE SAND FOR INSECTS. UNLIKE MOST BIRDS, THEY ARE QUITE AGILE ON THE GROUND, AND RATHER AWKWARD IN FLIGHT. BRIGHT COLORS IN THE SANDPIPER FAMILY ARE ABSENT, THEY ALL WEAR VARIOUS COMBINATIONS OF GRAY, BROWN, RUFOUS, BLACK, AND WHITE, OFTEN IN INTRICATE PATTERNS.

SANDPIPERS FEED MAINLY ON INSECTS, WORMS, SPIDERS, AND SMALL CRUSTACEANS..............THANKS FOR STOPPING BY..........RIZZI
