New Year Decorations!



I certainly have not been as attentive in my postings as I would have hoped. But now that the move is over and we are more or less settled and the baby is on a regular nap schedule, I can spend some time in the afternoons working on endless job searches, drawing, my workouts and cooking!! Today I took some time to go outside in the snow while Hannah was napping and watch the voracious birds at the feeder. I took my camera with me and was able to capture some of the wonderful birds hard at work to keep fueled while the large snowflakes blanket the rest of their world.
I am always awestruck at how little birds never seem to get cold or frostbite. Sometimes you can even see them sitting in a tree all covered in ice! Amazing the design from the master Creator. My crabapple is dappled in reds, beiges and blacks as the Cardinals, Juncos, Tufted Titmice and the Chickadees all take turns at the feeder. I could not have decorated my little crab apple any better than the Lord has done it! How truly fortunate I am to be able to bathe in the wonder of this creation while my own little wonder sleeps away.
