I just love that particular little bird. I don't imagine it's possible, but do you think it's the same little one who has posed before?
Have a blessed weekend Susan!

Beautiful post tonight. I think it's interesting that I just finished my own prayerful post - with birds as my illustration. I love your Chickadee...and the way you captured the motion of his wings.

Perfect..

are you reading Ann's book Susan?

S. Etole said...

Deb ... are you thinking of Ann Voskamp? I hope to read it some day; her writing cradles one's heart.

Beth said...

When I saw this bird, I wondered the same thing as Linda:Does this little bird friend pose for you regularly?!":) It looks like you caught its wing in motion--quite a catch if so.
Beautiful little friend accompanied by beautiful words.

Lisa said...

My son Rowan is sitting on the couch with me this morning looking at your picures, and he wanted me to tell you that he loves chickadees.

Beautiful pictures, as always susan!

Those little guys always make me smile...thanks Susan!

Jeanne Frances Klaver said...

Gibran's words and your photos inspire me to try harder to live with gratitude every moment. What a great way to start the day!

Maureen said...

Just the word "chickadee" has to make one smile. The images bring even bigger smiles.

Such a contrast to visit and feel the serenity here after watching unfolding events in Egypt.

Laura said...

I love this little chickadee. And you too, Susan. You snap shots of joy, did you know that?
