You Capture/Your Winter

My winter has been cold and icy.

This first picture is my favorite. It took many shots until I got the one with the drip.



There are lots of cool icicle formations.
Picnic anyone?

We are nice enough to feed the birds daily and they have the nerve to be picky about what they will eat. Notice the seed they are pushing away?


Lastly, look at this poor little guy trying to hold his ground in the winds.



That's what I got out of my fifty or so shots. Go to Beth's and see what everyone else got.

  9. Wow, you have a lot of accumulation. Love the ice shot and the poor hungry birdie shot. We just got a bird feeder so the boys could learn about compassion for nature. Not one bird has visited under their watch.

    Love your song by the way. I had Billy Joel on mine, but I took it off cause I need some change. Have a suggestion?

  16. The drip is magnificent! Coming here tonight was like therapy for me. I spent the entire day at the hospital... Rita is better, but the pneumonia is baffling the doctors... I don't know how many x-rays they can do on her tiny little body. Barry has a zillion questions... he has Crohn's disease and the perforation in his colon during the colonoscopy has him and me and everybody very concerned. He has been pumped with tons of antibiotics and they aren't letting him eat until Saturday... oh, God help us... he is weak and exhausted and sad that he couldn't see Taylor on her birthday. When I opened your blog and saw these magnificent photos... well, it calmed me. The whirl of the world and the silence and the time to drip and the time to rest... and holding your own against the wind. You will never know how peaceful all of this is to me right at this moment, sitting home alone with Janie's two big doggies at my feet... and you here with me. It is so very, very nice.
