The Winds Of Change


I'm aware that I said I'd share last weekend's sewing room project with you a few days ago. But the winds that came through here on Monday has kept me busy trying to get the yard tidy again.


So today I hope you don't mind a few from the garden. Caught this bluebird, above, in mid-flight.


The sage in the fairy gardens is coming along nicely, despite the pollen falling on it.


I have to say, this little chicken rarely gets into mischief...


You may get tired of looking at them, but I never tire of taking photos of these colorful birds.


Blogger is still giving me fits. I keep getting a Javascript error message, and it won't save all my changes. Then I have to keep going back and trying to fix it. Anyone else having these problems?

Patricia said...

I too absolutely love your garden/bird photos. Keep it up. We don't have bluebirds here in my area, so I'm thrilled to see them through your lens. Thanks for blogging today. Your post makes me smile.

Never stop posting pictures of those sweet birds. They are precious! And, I am pretty crazy about that sweet chicken. I had a few problems posting last night. Like you the spacing drives me crazy.

We had those crazy winds too Brenda! Your shots are gorgeous as always and I LOVE seeing the bluebirds. The bluebird in motion shot is too cool! And how exciting that Linda has joined your Cozy Little Shoppes, she'll be such a wonderful addition!

Wow, what wonderful bluebird photos. I get them to one of my boxes usually twice a year but can't seem to get any great pictures. You gardens are beautiful.

Lisa said...

Brenda your photography is just breath taking. The bluebird in flight is stunning (no I never tire of bird photo's), and the sharp detail in all of them especially the last couple is just perfect.

Your yard is fabulous. I love all of your pictures. I've spent the last two days cleaning and planting. So much is dead that it's like starting from scratch. Hate that. Hugs, Marty

I worked in the garden today too. All of the rain this year has brought a bonus of weeds. I love the bird pictures I never seem to be able to get my camera in time to take one, these are great!

I don't tire of seeing your photos of the blue birds. Yes - the winds Monday were really bad. I was out and about most of today and they were pretty strong today also.

Brenda,

I would never tire of the bluebirds. When I lived in Maine, I saw them all the time and had a special house for them.

Beautiful garden pictures.

I'm having trouble with Blogger too. It does save my changes but it doesn't let me make new paragraphs. Unless I insert a picture, my paragraphs run on and on.

AshTreeCottage said...

Stunning pics Brenda! I never tire of seeing that sweet bluebird.

Love,

I am intrigued by your bluebird-in-action shots! SO GOOD!!!
Pretty garden. Makes me almost want to go outside and brave the bugginess that is already prevalent in Louisiana! :)
