My mother loved birds and could identify them just by sound. She was incredible. Today I think she must have been around.
This morning I was given a url for a site where you could observe a peregrine falcon nesting in downtown Salt Lake City. http://wildlife.utah.gov/peregrine/ I went there and saw her get off her eggs at one point and was able to see her eggs.
As I went to close the blinds this evening, I remembered we have our own nesting mother under the window eave. The closing of the blinds scares her off her nest. I peaked through the blinds and their was the nest with 5 eggs. My husband's comment as I told him was: you are getting to be just like your mother. What a nice compliment.
Still later as I went out to walk Missie, I noticed two morning doves sitting on our front gate. One on one side and one on the other facing each other. Mother would have loved it.

About Me
- Mom
- Mayer, Arizona
- My name is Suzanne Osborne Halliday. I am a mother of five sons: Michael, Edward, Stephen, Bruce and Daniel. I have a beloved step daughter: Lisa. I am the grandmother of seven grandsons: Anthony, Joshua, Aaron, Tyler, Mattie, Sydney, Zachary, and three grand daughters: Bella, Gali and Alycia. I was born in Wichita, Kansas in 1942 to Harvey Osborne and Joyce White. When I was nine years old my parents moved to Peridot, Arizona, a village on the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation where my father had bought a trading post. It was not long after this that I was first introduced to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. A family down the road invited me to attend Primary. It was held in the back of the Weech's Trading Post in San Carlos. This was where I learned that I because of Jesus Christ I could return to live with my Heavenly Father again one day. Three years later my heart was touched by a Joseph Smith pamphlet I found in my brother Stevie's lunch pail. I joined the church 13 May 1961 when I was 19 years old. This decision has greatly changed my life.
