“People think pleasing God is all God care about. But any fool living in the world can see it always trying to please us back.” — Alice Walker, The Color Purple

The top photo is one of three robin’s nests in our parking garage. The babies are so big now that you can see them from the ground!

And the bottom photo…well, guess who I saw today? The first little one of the season. (The pair was kind of far away, so my photo isn’t so great.) In addition to seeing a turkey on the way to work this morning, baby birds in the parking garage this afternoon, then mamma deer and her baby this evening, tonight I saw a fat little family of raccoons and an enormous red-tailed hawk. Yes, Alice Walker, I could truly see “it trying to please” me back — all over the place.
