    __ This is from one of my old 'scribble' books. Juncos are refered to as snowbirds here, and this snowbird had interupted the 'catnap purrs'. Smiles_!

    a cat dozes
    in the window sill sun
    this junco

    Those wilful cats. :-) But then falling blossom is too much to ignore by anyone, feline or otherwise.

    I felt such a sense of sadness in this, with the apple blossoms falling. Hopefully the cat came home?
