  12. Wonderful picture indeed
    Agree with the quote too at your feed
    But I'm sure they aren't all harmless
    As when they fly over head they can drop quite the mess
    On ones car or on one's head
    Oh the dread...haha

  21. Betsy - gotta question about Mr. Toast’s Theme coffee break.

    Do you post a picture of someone having coffee where I would like to be? Does it have to be a moving screen?

    thanks,

  22. Cindy ~ the cinemagraphs were just for inspiration on his post. For an entry it needs to be some kind of creative thing from you...drawing, painting, etc. Photography isn't allowed just on it's own. I hope you join in! That would be so fun! For a full list of guidelines, just go to his blog. He has a link for them.

  23. cindy ~ unless you do a cinemagraph...then I'm sure that would be allowed as it is more creative than a simple snapshot.

  24. I love this quote and photo.
    It reminds me of a quote that I have searched on line for, but can't find. It has the words "bless the creatures that have no voice". If anyone knows it, please let me know : )
    I'm not sure what kind of bird this is...maybe some sort of dove??

  25. Cat ~ is it this one?....

    Animals have no voice of their own, so we have to be that voice.

  26. A most colorful and loving bird that must be. Whoever took this picture was a very lucky person to have seen such a pretty sight.

    As always thank you so much for sharing the pic and the quote.

    God bless.
