I had fun with it once I got the idea.<br /><br />Mick, isn't it funny to have someone who is in the opposite season from you! When the snow finally starts to fall around here, i will be wanting YOUR weather! LOL! Let's see, the grass is always greener...the snow is always softer...the heat is always drier...someplace else!Kathie Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377224759599266209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068198388134099737.post-90348221784576763472011-12-11T13:11:13.975-07:002011-12-11T13:11:13.975-07:00I really enjoyed your post and great bird photos t...I really enjoyed your post and great bird photos too.

I have been down in CT at my Mom's house helping her while she goes through chemo and takes care of 3 great-grand children due to a family crisis. While there I have been feeding her birds but before I left I filled all of my feeders here in MA. tonight when I returned home I found the squirrels went on a rampage while I was gone with 1 feeder on the ground, the squirrel baffle ripped off the feeder pole and the attendant feeders now empty! No fear. I repaired, refilled and started counting birds once again!<br /><br />Lawrence and maria, thank you so much. I do so enjoy the birds and it was fun to pull from some of my photo archives. I am sure many people have never even heard of the Phainopepla. I truly enjoyed them when I lived in AZ. Besides, their name is so much fun to say and spell!<br /><br />Carole, thank you! I am glad that you enjoyed the AZ birds! Merry Christmas to you also!<br /><br />TexWisGirl, hope I didn't make your head spin!<br /><br />Jean, all I can say is, "Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat..." :-)<br /><br />Kelly, so am I! But it is even more amazing when you can capture the Pyrrhuloxia in the snow!Kathie Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377224759599266209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068198388134099737.post-32744820977779181622011-12-07T21:18:45.654-07:002011-12-07T21:18:45.654-07:00...loved it, Kathie!

Brilliant photos, marvelous detail and inspired writing! You remind me: 7 AM.
