Distracted...

I have lot's to do...
The hubs and I have many tenant's to look after...
A huge house and yard to take care of.
I am still organizing the photographs on my computer.
 
But I get distracted by these,
 
 



I love these Catbirds.
They pose beautifully for pictures.
I open the window, hang out, and snap away...they don't move.
 
How in the world can you get anything done,
when these beauties are hanging
"Just Outside My Window"

I have the same problem with my chickens. I know I have tons to do but I can spend hours just looking at them. Lovely photos.

Blogging+photography+birds =
0 productivity in other areas. Just sayin'. :)

Distractions like these birds are wonderful ones! I love his eyes and the way he lifts his head. These are great shots, Debbie.

Of course, these birds (and your blog) are also distracting me . . . from work! But I don't mind. :-)

Hi Debbie... I have had a hard time picking up the camera with all this miserable heat, then rain and muggy weather yuck!! Makes you stay inside!
Lucky you to get these wonderful shots hanging out the window!! : )
The Catbird might leave, but the work will be there ; )!!

Yes, I Agee I spend to much time watching my birds. Yes, I sit book in hand trying to catch a glimpse as they come in for a meal or a bath. Love your sweet babies.

Beautiful photos of Catbirds. That's a species we don't have in Wis, or not that I've seen. Be careful you don't get so carried away photographing that you fall out the window!!!!

Judy said...

I love the contrast between the grey feathers and the copper leaves!!

Ida said...

Well they are a lovely little bird so I can see why you would be a bit distracted. Lots more fun, right.

Beautiful picture.

And it's feels so good when you just pick up the camera and take a card :)
