Winter Birds

Yesterday Jake and I were invited to the home of some
of our friends,to do bird photography.
Upon arriving at their home we were ushered into a cozy room,
complete with a wood burning stove.Comfy!
This room was designed for bird watching.
The room had large windows on three sides and feeders
hung close to most windows.
A backdrop of evergreens created the perfect setting for photography.
Here are a few of the pictures taken in this lovely setting.
The first five were done by Jake and the last two by Ruth
The main feeder is unique,making use of an old bowl. Some old willow chairs were readily used by the birds for a waiting area.
A beautiful American Goldfinch,posing just right.
This Common Redpoll was waiting his turn at the seeds.
Always a good photo subject,the Black-capped Chickadee.
The only thing between me and the Goldfinch is a pane of glass.
Another Chickadee willing to pose for me.
Great are the works of the Lord. Pslam:111:2
