Don't, however, stand for too long under a tree full of them--their berry diet makes them extremely regular.teya r.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589529087981426639.post-27912928778377188442010-11-23T09:46:21.759-08:002010-11-23T09:46:21.759-08:00Dear Sue, I've not stopped in often enough. No...Dear Sue, I've not stopped in often enough. Not here nor over there. The demands of daily life have me feeling emptied out, like just getting us through our days & then through the night to the next day again has been sucking up everything I have to give, including attention. But I left this tab open last night & sat myself down this morning with a sigh and a cup of tea and looked and looked in admiration at what you have done. Such thoughtfulness. Your images, the loveliness, your individual eye. You have inspired me to more. To dig a little deeper, fight for the spark. <br /><br />So that was a long thank you (forgive me my words but I havn't a camera) now here are a few flickerings/ comments <br />- yes, I think Waxwings. Beautiful shots. I love the flight/falling one. I could become a bird person. This worries me only a little.<br />- the white board, a wonderful idea<br />- the upsidedown red spangled shoes, one of my fave shots b/c it captures exuberance which is no easy thing<br />- your invitation to look, to try to remember better/more/differently: yes. The days flow by. I panic. Feel like I am missing something. Not paying attention & so, not remembering. It comes, I think, from living in reaction to instead of mindfully of.<br />So. Thank you for the mind-full today. xoEarnestGirlhttp://www.yummymummyclub.ca/earnestgirl_west_coast_chroniclesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589529087981426639.post-58562268266099452732010-11-23T04:18:35.383-08:002010-11-23T04:18:35.383-08:00I'd bet they're cedar waxwings.

We have, after all, embarked on something that is technically known as light-writing (photo-graphing), and the light of the seasons, the light of an evening, and the various changes that go with the way the light is, is what we're capaturing.<br /><br />Colours, textures, reflections. Love it all.bornhikinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07905905764326412113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589529087981426639.post-31344276665199315772010-11-22T19:41:18.522-08:002010-11-22T19:41:18.522-08:00I can't really tell from the pictures--but per...I can't really tell from the pictures--but perhaps the birds are female cardinals (which are sort of dun/pinky brown colour with reddish orange beaks) or cedar waxwings. But I love the pictures and wish I had seen the birds--the snaps are great.Kathrynhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/imaginis2010/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589529087981426639.post-4582396569584245122010-11-22T18:37:19.280-08:002010-11-22T18:37:19.280-08:00great pictures
