I don't see them very often but when I see a wren it makes my day .When all the snowdrops are out it's very special .
In May when the bluebells are in full bloom the sight and smell of them I love .
My little grandson laughing always cheers me up

There are Grey Wagtails on our river. I do like to stand on the bridge & watch those & the Dipper if it's around.

Re: Lovely sights to make your day
I've got a little Robin too Patsy. He comes every morning and sits and watches me as I do the bird tables for the day. I always talk to him.I am always thrilled when the first of my roses blooms too. I just love the perfection of the petals and the delicious heady perfume. Nearly all my roses are heavily perfumed. My other favourite flowers are my Cottage Pinks, again they are such a beautiful perfume.
I love my flowers, and always think it is such a shame that florist flowers have no smell.
I confess I'm also happy when I wake up and feel my oldest dog has sneaked up next to me during the night. She is only about 7KG, so I rarely feel her arrive. She is a crafty little monkey and is never on my bed when I go to sleep, but she sneaks up during the night after I have nodded off so's I won't know! I do love her, and I confess I find it comforting to feel her little warm body next to me.
Lastly, I love being anywhere where there are views across greenery and open fields. The feeling of space and a kind of freedom is soooo good.
I could sit and watch the sea all day, but sadly, rarely have the chance any more and I am too far inland where I live.

Re: Lovely sights to make your day
What made me first smile today was just seeing the sun shine!Because of that I was outside (still chilly here) , and heard the birds having a good old sing-song!
I also saw some birds taking the dogs fur that I leave out for them (in the woodshed) for their nests. I always imagine the baby birds snuggling up against that lovely soft fur.
I love seeing how my boys (the dogs) frolic around still, even though all 3 of them are seniors.
Their joy is so simple, but such a delight to be a part of.
Danged if I can keep up with them though!
Life's pretty dang good when you enjoy the simple stuff!
