For The Birds

Over many years I have enjoyed feeding birds on my yard. I started out doing so again this winter, but some hungry deer found the feeder and cleaned it out every night. I feel like I can't afford to feed the deer so I have not put any food out for a while.

Here are some winter shots from earlier this winter.

Put out peanuts and the Blue Jays will come. They make a colourful addition to the winter landscape.


I have rarely had satisfactory pictures of either Ravens or Crows. Being that they are all black it is hard for me to get a good shot. I was reasonably satisfied with this image of a Raven.


I have several Red-breasted Nuthatches who make their home on my yard. I love those little birds. I caught this image while he stopped a minute on a snowy branch.


My all time favourite bird is the Black-capped Chickadee. These birds may not be colourful, but they always seem cheery to me. This one is contemplating the food just below him.


And, if you want that food, just let go of the branch and make your way down. A split second after this shot, he opened his wings to glide in for a perfect landing at the feeder.


 To Think About:

You are God’s work of art.

Only you can express what He put inside you.
