Saturday Critters ~ 228 ~



The Sand Cherry Tree is starting to bloom.
The flowers provide a pretty background when photographing the birds.
Today, it was dark, cloudy and raining outside...
but the Titmouse looks beautiful as he hops from branch to branch.

The moral of the story, take the pictures, even if the circumstances are not ideal!

Beautiful shots of the Tufted Titmouse, a very appealing little bird. We are a little north of its regular range although around the north shore of Lake Erie it is becoming fairly common.

My very, very favorite tiny birdie!
This little one is so adorable, and these photographs are wonderful, Debbie.
I choose rain/clouds/gloomy for pictures, over bright sunshine, so I especially love the way these turned out.
xo.

That Titmouse is the cutest little bird, and what a beautiful background the cherry tree makes for him.

These are fabulous.Yes,sometimes the circumstances are not ideal, but we still make the best of what we are given.

Take pictures - especially when the circumstances are not ideal. This is a hard lesson for me, but some of the best photos happen that way. And what is it about the little titmouse that is so adorable - really, I just love their sweet little faces. The cherry tree makes a beautiful background for this cute little bird - I love the way you captured it. There must be a photo contest of some sort to enter these photos into - seriously!!

I have heard that when it is cloudy it is a good time to take photos. These are fantastic shots of the Titmouse. I do love the color gray.
Blessings and hugs!
