Heart Hunt -Postcard Friendship Friday #150



I love Valentine's Day.  It is one of my favorite holidays--rich in history, romance, art, song and stories.  My collection of Valentine's Day cards started years ago, when I was at an estate sale in my home town and bought an old catalog into which a child had pasted all the Valentines he had received over the years.  What a find!  Since then my collection has grown to include many beautiful vintage cards covering all kinds of holidays and sentiments. 

I especially loved this postcard with these cute little cherubic heart hunters.  I wonder what kind of bird laid this amazing clutch of heart shaped eggs?   What do you think?

Have a lovely day everyone.

Blue Birds!

Isn't this card lovely? It is also from Grandma Jenny's collection.

I love blue birds. There has been a resurgence in the population of blue birds in our area...they were going extinct until some folks in our area took notice and worked on building them back.

When we were small, my siblings and I were on our way out of the canyon. We saw a interesting long pouch of moss lying in the middle of the road. I picked it up and three small blue birds flew out of it. It was a blue bird nest and by picking it up, I had probably saved the lives of the tiny birds within. It is a delightful moment I will never forget.
