'nothin but blue skies'

caveat: all I do is complain about the weather. It appears that we have two choices here in the Twin Cities: cold and clear blue skies or warm[er], foggy and gray.

So, today dawned in the first category and I was itching to take a long walk along the lake. On my way home I heard familiar Robin sounds right above me. He was basking in the sun so didn't mind me taking his photo. Oh joy! Is there a more beautiful sound than bird song in the dead of winter?

  5. Wonderful picture. Robins are spring birds here and I love when I first start seeing them. By the end of the summer I am fed up with them.

  7. Your description of winter is all to familiar to us here in Wisconsin. Such a pretty and rare winter capture of a very optimistic(!) Robin :-)

  8. Beautiful! Such a sharp contrast to the birds we see in South Florida this time of year! Pictures like that warm the soul!

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, to be led by permanent ideals--that is what keeps a man patient when the world ignores him, and calm & unspoiled when the world praises him.
