Chief of the Bird Club

Pictures From Spring Valley


Chief of the Bird Club

I caught this beauty after a heavy snowstorm in 2010. It's hard to imagine now with summer temperatures hovering around 90. I enjoy snow pictures in summer because they make me feel cooler. And I don't have to shovel anything! Here's a poem my sister wrote about that snowfall.

So silently, so swiftly,
The snowflakes softly fall
Weaving for the frozen earth
An icy, glist'ning shawl.

That is one handsome bird and a beautiful shot. I love cardinals.

I love this bright red cardinal with the pretty icicles in front!

What nice detail on the snow and ice--and a lovely visitor at the feeder!
