There is beauty all around us is the most unexpected places. <br /><br />I went into the park on Monday hoping to find the 5 point buck or the female deer. I checked out all their hiding places - nothing. And yet I found incredible peace and beauty. <br /><br />And one perfect sparrow - sweet, vulnerable, strong, and so tiny! I keep going back and looking at the pictures myself. I can't believe I took them!<br /><br />You always encourage me with your comments. You are awesome!

There is thought, with depth, in that eye. Whenever I look at this little sparrow, I feel incredible sweetness. It is such a tiny thing, and yet it is the essence of sweetness. I believe that there is a lot more going on in living things than we could ever guess. <br /><br />I've tried so many times to capture a sparrow in a photo, and now this unexpected picture. If I never got another good bird picture, I would still be filled accomplishment. and happiness. <br /><br />It used to drive me crazy when my friend (now deceased) would call sparrows "garbage birds." They may be common, but they are lovely and are such light-hearted spirits.Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-42790970802730988782012-11-21T08:00:22.879-07:002012-11-21T08:00:22.879-07:00Louise, you have left me speechless this morning w...Louise, you have left me speechless this morning with this post.

I am fascinated with the bark of the cottonwood tree. I look at it and touch it all the time. It is rough and hard and deeply corrugated, even when it is wet.<br /><br />It was silent and still when I went into the park yesterday. At first glance it looked barren, and I made it a game to find as many different things to photograph as I could when I subtracted color.<br /><br />That squirrel was a fluke - there and gone in a split second.<br /><br />And the sparrow - after years of trying to get a good picture of a sparrow - there it was. I had a friend who called sparrows "garbage birds." I think they are pretty, little birds and so lovely in their soft browns and grays!<br /><br />Have a good one, Sophie and Ron! ^5 Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-75914574983618533902012-11-20T07:12:34.588-07:002012-11-20T07:12:34.588-07:00The 2 colours are mirrored everywhere...it's t...The 2 colours are mirrored everywhere...it's truly quite stunning....I especially love the bark in the 1st photo...I a bark person(pun intended)...I have a couple trees in my backyard that I look at all the time because the bark is so intriguing...lovely captures today....thanks!<br />Ron <br />PS...I'm #5 on the revolving globe thingie! ;-)<br />fromsophiesviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532257840856313054noreply@blogger.com
