Daily Pics 2020…#7.

Good morning everyone!  It is a bit on the cold side today, but it’s getting colder, so this isn’t so bad.  Yesterday it was so nice and sunny all day, so even though it was cold it still felt nice just to see the sun shining.  There was a lot of bird activity yesterday too which was also nice, so I spent time out there trying to get pics.  And I did get some nice pics too.  Nearly froze my hands, but I got some nice pics.  Except I missed the gray jay again.  That is a tough bird to get sometimes.  They don’t exactly sit around and eat usually, though sometimes they will.  I do have pictures of our gray jays, but I’m always looking for something new, perhaps a little different, more unique in some way.  But there’s more time yet before they start nesting next month.

But for now, more bright and cheery flowers for us to look at…

Here’s the next picture of that bee we saw flying to the delphinium yesterday.  It’s a nice bright and colorful group.IMG_3588

And here we have our wild columbine to help give us a boost of color and cheer for today.

I hope you like these choices.  Have a wonderful Tuesday and God bless!

Ice Crystals…A Poem.

Ice Crystals

On this day so bright and cold,

Still we find such beauty bold.

Tiny crystals in the air,

Twinkling beauty everywhere.

Sparkling diamonds that I see,

Falling there in front of me.

Green and yellow, red and blue,

Come alive in each ’tis true.

Shining sun upon them all,

Gives this beauty while they fall.

See these gems when cold and clear,

Sparkling diamonds, far and near.

Not a movement in the air,

Just ice crystals, everywhere.
