I was washing my dishes earlier and this cute little game/idea came to my mind and thought we all would have fun doing it and then share!
When I wash my dishes I usually gaze out my window and watch all kind of things that goes on out there. A bluejay caught my eye as it flew to my pear tree. I watched it hop along a branch then swing upside down to peck at a pear! It amused me... thus this "I spy" was born...
So, here how it goes... when ever you are at your own kitchen window and something catches your eye and amused you... please, share that with us?
Thanks! :o)

I spy with my little eye out my kitchen window- wonderful autumn leaves drifting down, down, down... for my family to rake! Lori |

I spy Molly Moo Cow, ( my swiss brown ), asleep with the fence holding her head up and a couple of birds sleeping on her back.

A hugh Blue Jay that goes back and forth between the bird feeders eating as much as he can. Leaves drifting down from the plum tree and the cat trying to catch that bird she is to old and fat to even get close but she keeps trying. Diaan

have bird feeders outside kitchen and living room windows..and my beautiful gardens...kitchen window also views the greenhouse and back woods..often see deer under the apple tree and other wildlife..also get to watch our kitties and our neighboring kitty out the window..this morning was neighbors "patches" over begging for a treat..yes we treat her..she belongs to our son and was a baby of our mama cat.
the other day i noticed out the fronjt window in the living room, that the color of the purple leaf (actually wine) smoke bush is the exact same color as the draperies at that window..was a pleasant surprise..guess I'll be protecting that plant and helping it to grow larger..so it will be a real pretty accent to my living room view

When I look out our big farm country/ kitchen dinning room I see beautiful mountains that are turning in the October sunshine ; this morning Oct. winds are blowing golden and brown leaves everywhere to the side out of our bay window in the dinning part I see more mountains; as we have them all around us I see leaves falling off trees. In the late afternoon ; I will see maybe a few deer and possibly our cows they come up and watch us eat our dinner most afternoons It is really windy here today ; it is sorta warm out side sunny; but it is chilly inside Fixing home made stew for supper . yummy. hugs sheila

this is a great topic! I'm sitting here giggling at the thought of some of your sights...an eyeball, a sandwich...heehee! I am watching deer munch the apples under the trees. The wild turkeys will come later when the deer are done. Love it...so peaceful.

Not really the window but, out my kitchen screen door there is a squirel "cussing" in the tree. See he's busy collecting acorns and my mama kitty has layed down for a nap in the sun by this tree. This squirel is not happy with her choice of spots so he's "cussing' her for all it's worth. It's like he's saying " Come on move would ya, can't a squirel get anything done today? You know winter is coming!"

I like this! I spied one of my outside cats, Nadia, sleeping on her back, all paws facing up. She trusts me so!!!!! Marly

This afternoon I spied 5 bluebirds spashing it up in our birdbath....this afternoon our "herd" of 11 wild turkeys grazing in the dried grass and weeds, while cooking supper I spied 3 deer not too far from the house, also, Mr. Quail arrived at his usual time, he comes every evening, but hasn't brought his family yet.

Hubby just put out the "chicken scratch" so I'm watching all the neighborhood quail bellying up to it. They are such a joy to watch all year long and to feed over the winter.

As of late, I have spied some very glorious sunsets. It has been lovely, as it is always a reminder of something my husband wrote in a card to me, " May the unmistakable beauty of each sunset remind you of my unmistakable love for you." I found the card when going through things after my husband's passing. The card sits on my dresser now, so even on cloudy days, I can be reminded.

I have two views from my kitchen window(s). I can see the majestic, Rocky Mountains from one of my windows.:) From the other window, I can see the Olympic ski jumps from the 1988 Winter games. We simply LOVE our views!
Today...the mountains are covered with newly fallen snow. It's rather early, but still beautiful to behold. Just hope it will be a nice day on Saturday...our daughter is getting married.![](icons/icon_smile.gif)

I have two kitchen windows. From the first, I spy our two little black angus bull calves with their mamas drinking from the trough and beyond the pasture and across the creek, a herd of 35 deer are eating the neighbor's alfalfa. Out the side window there is an industrious little squirrel gathering walnuts to store for winter.
It's not about being perfect, but enjoying what you do. Set aside time to be creative.

I do not live far out in the coutry like I wish, but sometimes the country comes to me. Far and away the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen (besides my two teenage boys playing in the snow) is the amazing deer that love to hang out in my backyard and eat all of my shrubbery. Honestly, I think that it is worth it.

On nice days I see butterflies on the butterfly bush or crows in the field
I can also see who drives up and down our road
One time I was able to catch a fleeting glimpse of a coyote running the far length of a field
Glad at that time the cats were in the hosue and on the porch! |
