White Breasted Nuthatch
Blue Jay
My Blue Jays are very good sharers.
Male Northern Cardinal
Mourning Dove
Male House Finch
Male House Sparrow
Female House Sparrow
because of his longer bill.
My happiest moments are those spent with my family.
The hubs is always here but sometimes I miss my boys.
Then I remember I must fill my own heart with joy
and I don't have any trouble doing that!!
Make yourself happy and others will feel your joy!!

oh, sigh. We can make that choice to fill up with the joy-bringing stuff. These are all magnificent photos - the DETAIL that you've gotten...I love them. But mostly it's knowing how genuinely tickled you are to have your treasured camera, lens and time to spend doing what you enjoy! If you have a second, head here:

She's sharing so beautifully today what photography means to her!! Hugs to you!
Isn't that the truth! We have to be happy ourselves, before we can make others happy! Sometimes I'm not so good at that, and other times I'm good at it! Anyway, the photos of the birds are absolutely awesome! I just have one question, how to you know if it's a boy or girl? You been lifting up the skirts of the birds again?
Beautiful series bird and the squirrel are lovely...have a nice day ..HUgs

I find great joy in birdwatching and the snapping of them, among other things! I love your new lens, your camera takes such crystal clear shots. Have a great day and have fun shooting!
What did you do, put out a casting call for those photos? Now you've made me add that lens to my birthday wish list for the Nikon. Fat chance, but we'll see how far I can push the idea.
Wise words Debbie :D)

Fantastic photographs. I am greeting
I love your pictures of the birds and squirrl today. Camera's are amazing. You are inspiring me to go out and take a picture or two. I think that being in nature helps so much when one is down. I have felt down; but this helped me rethink a few things.
You made my joy by seeing these fantastic photos - boy you sure do know how to use that camera! Did your boys grow up and move out? sandie
Oh I so understand this post. You make me happy. I miss my girls too but I find happiness everywhere and it is up to people to make their own happiness. I love your outlook it is so true. Awesome pics.
HUGS B
