| Happy New Year! I'll kick it off with a Raven at the top of a pine tree from Christmas morning. I prefer Christmas trees decorated this way   Then we got some nice flocking...  |

| I like the Raven topper too. Looks so regal up there. I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown |

Well, here's some more not great ones...bad light, too far away this is not a black and white photo, and you can almost see the yellow eyes  and this is actually a golden eagle silhouette, in the snow, way up high on a dead tree on a ridge...not really worth taking and posting, but I did anyway   proof of eagle--barely--that's what we call it I get lots of proof that I saw something anyway |

| Is that a lake Dirt? A frozen lake, a snowed on, frozen lake? What am I looking at there? That can't be a seafood type of thing there lapping at the edge, could it????

| Dirt managed to get the water receding a bit at the edge and I think he captured reflections from the ducks in that water. When you grow orchids, it is all about the ROOTS!!! |

| That's a river with just a bit of open water and, yes, those are the duck reflections no seafood type things fresh water fish though |

BigBill said:Dirt managed to get the water receding a bit at the edge and I think he captured reflections from the ducks in that water. Just so you know Bill, Dirt is a very pretty female. I know it's hard to know when we all call her Dirt. After all, dirt is generally associated with the male gender. And in case you don't know it, I like to tease people in a dry way. Just imagine everything I say being said with a twinkle in my eye & grin on my face. And I once lobbied for a winking emoji to be added b/c I tease a lot, my mom always teased a lot & it was always accompanied with a wink but some stodgy (a lot of them?) ppl said noooooooooooo, a winking emoji wouldn't do at all. Winking is flirting & we can't have that. Bah humbug!!!!! I says. I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others.

| Oops, I forgot. Sometimes my fingers get typing and I get lost in what I am typing. I sincerely apologize to Dirt for forgetting! But you are right, "Dirt", female? When you grow orchids, it is all about the ROOTS!!! |

I've seen a couple of Hummingbirds visit the feeders today but I can't seem to get a single picture of one of them, they are just too fast! The only bird photos I've gotten so far today are of a male Northern Cardinal:  ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |
