Brrrr . . . . it's been cold around here lately.
Yesterday the local newscasters were comparing our temperatures to that of the surface of Mars {weird isn't it?}. Yesterday it was -22 degrees and today its warmed up to -10 degrees. A good reason to stay indoors and work.I've been busy making beaded necklaces and hand-dying fiber - I should have some new items in my shop later this week.
I've also been busy taking pictures of birds {of course! - I love watching those little guys!}. It can be so hard to get a decent picture of them. They seem to be in constantly moving. The minute that I think that I have one in view - he flies off, leaving me with a photo of a tree branch. I snapped well over 200 photos yesterday and have only a few that I like.
I'm joining Texture Tuesday with this photo of a little Chickadee - it has two layers of Kim Klassen's Providence texture.

Be Wonderfully Odd!
Ooooo, I love the composition of that last shot. Well worth the wait! I suppose I'd be constantly moving if I was that little and that cold too!Visiting from Texture Tuesday
ReplyDeleteLove the last one!!
ReplyDeleteI have a hard time capturing burds too. It takes me a while to get the shot set up. By the time I'm ready, the bird is history...sigh..
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that creatures as small as chickadees can survive such brutally cold temperatures. And isn't it nice that they bring a spot of color into your wintry landscape?
ReplyDeletepretty little bird pictures...it has been so very cold everywhere...they need all the help they can get
ReplyDeleteFabulous shots and beautiful edits! I adore chickadees!
