This blog is about my garden and the outdoors. I am new to photography but I am trying to show some of the pretty things that grow here in Michigan. I love the wild things who visit me and I dont mind if they eat a bit here and there. I like it more if they let me take their picture. As time goes on I think I will try to show you around the beautiful area that I live in as well as my garden. I try to use my own pictures as much as possible but will also use pictures from the web. If I inadvertently use your photo or work without permission please email me and I will remove it or give credit if you prefer. I will give credit when I know who the owner is. I would ask that anyone using my pictures do the same.

A Crow came today............

I always leave my bathroom window slightly open so that I can take pictures of my birds. Today I had made Split Pea and Ham soup. The ham had a rind on it and so after I cut that off I put it out so the birds could have a go at the fat. Well, it was a great success. The Starlings were all over it. My husband came home and SHUT the bloody window.............I went and looked out and low and behold a Crow.......sitting on the path. Of course I could not open the window without scaring the birds, and of course the Crow went up in the tree. Darn it. I took one shot through the window.

I did at least manage to get a picture of him in the tree. I hope he comes back. I will have to rememeber to throw out some meat now and then and get those Crows down. The Starlings love it too.

Not much else is interesting today......the snow is still coming down and its still really cold. Poor things, I am going to buy extra bread because they get through quite a bit every day, dont just put out scraps now. So will have to start buying specials for the birds.

Wonderful photos, a lovely variety of them. We had a light snowfall this evening but like the other times, I think it will disappear tomorrow. Happy Sunday to you.

I really enjoy your bird photos. The tufted titmouse is darling. We only get one snow event a winter if we are 'lucky' and I think that we already had it in December darn it!
