chickadee in oak tree
One sunny day last week I watched a dozen little birds -- mostly warblers and chickadees, as far as I could tell -- catapult from the woods near the shore to the bog to the oak tree: boing boing boing like a bunch of ping-pong balls. These birds hardly pause to allow for pictures. They've got another agenda entirely - bugs!

Hi Anne: I will miss you on your hiatus from Island Journal - since the whole province has been called "Almost an Island" have you considered a maybe once a week post, including some shots of Halifax and what you are seeing and doing there. In my fantasies, I think of holing up there in the winters and soaking up a little propinquity after years of isolation in my rural paradise - lol! I was a resident of peninsular Halifax until my late twenties - I miss it sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI will definitly miss your blog, and pictures, and will look forward to February. Success with your writing. I am enjoying Greg's
ReplyDeletebook and bought another for my daughter, and already know I want yours. You both have made quite an impression on me. Have a blessed Christmas, and a wonderful new year, full of new adventures.
Wonderful picture. I surely will miss you, along with others - hope the time away is beneficial and restful.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful holiday season Anne! We so enjoy your blog, especially now that we live in Nova Scotia. Enjoy your winter! Neil & Susan :)
