(INTO THE WOODS AND BEYOND!)
Everyone safe out there?
We’re feathered up against the flurries here today…tomorrow may be another story, it was in the 60’s just days ago.
To all of my friends on the West coast, I’m hoping that wherever you are, you’re high and dry and hanging in there.
To my friends in the South, I hope you’re all coming through the violent storms safely.
To those of you experiencing some of the earthquakes…well…pardon me…but, damn!
The bluebirds have proven to be a winter friend for the most part. They are still here, but they prefer to perch in the trees and drop down onto unsuspecting insects.
Just look at the blue color of this bird. I see these birds flying through the trees almost every day, but I still get excited to see that beautiful blue.
Isn’t this male bluebird pretty?
The beautiful wings are like a cape and everything says, “elegant.”
Then we have the mourning dove, clumsy on the branch ,built like a tank, it’s wings are beautiful in flight. When I see it next to a bluebird, I wonder how it even gets off the ground, but the answer stares me right in the face. Look at those massive wings!
I’m not sure what was below this bluebird, but in the event that this was a ninja bluebird…I’m glad it wasn’t me.
Just look at those poised claws, the arched back, the look of fury on it’s face…okay, maybe not fury, but it’s not smiling.
Aside from the ninja attitude, what gets me the most is that it appears to have longer fingernails than I do.
