Feathered Models...

It has not stopped snowing...
Perfect time for new reference material!

This little friend sat perched like this for so long
I thought it was frozen in place...


Snow began sticking to its little head and shoulders...


Mr. & Mrs. were hanging out together...


Chickadee-dee-dee...


Tufted Titmouse...
New positions to add to my Titmouse files...
Very primitive photos... but perfect for layouts!



Triple the fun!
Wishing you smile-filled days!

What beautiful birds in the snow. I love the picture of the cardinal in the branches of the tree with the snow all around. I can't wait to see how it will turn out in your designs.

Love them all, Michelle. Don't you wish you could invite them all in for the winter? I always did. ;-)
Blessings,

Even the birds have heard how talented you are. They are sitting and waiting for you take their picture. Hoping to be the subject of some of your future work

You get a great assortment of feathered folk at your feeders - lucky you! We've had feeders out and never get any birds (unless you count the four legged furry squirrel-birds). Too many hawks around here and they scare off the songbirds.

Michelle, it takes such patience to photograph birds, doesn't it! They move so quickly! Especially if they've seen us! Holly posted a chickadee on her blog hanging from a hook that I just love! I think she should make a quilt from it.
Hugs, friend!
