<font face="Comic Sans MS">Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Yesterday evening was so nice I had to sit outside and just enjoy it
for a few minutes after work. While sitting there I noticed several
small birds flitting around in the top of our mimosa tree. I couldn't
get a good enough look at them to identify what kind they were, but
they appeared to be picking the seeds out of some of the many seed pods
dangling from the branches of the tree. I had never noticed this
happening before, but when I thought about how many seed pods full of
seeds probably fall from that tree each year, I'd say they've probably
been cleaning up a lot of mimosa seeds for us over the years, or our
yard would look like a mimosa jungle! It's amazing the things that
occur in nature that we don't even notice going about our busy lives!
I always enjoy it when I can take a moment to see what's going on in
the natural world around us and feel like I learned a little something.

Those of you who have some spare time around noon today should catch
the baseball game between our Eastern Mountaineers and Texarkana
College. Good luck Mountaineers! Get fired up and win one for the
Blue and Gold!<br>
