Winter birds

atop the pine tree

winter birds, ever watchful

the red sky dawns

Happy New Year to all!

I hope everyone had a restful break and the new year is now upon us. With it, at least in northern hemispheres, the daylengths start to draw longer again (phew), although it is bitter cold and ice and snow are blanketing the landscape. The crows? They are around, of course. My obsession with them continues. Ever interesting, ever present, ever curious.

They are among the best of the winter birds.
