A Gradual Transition ~




"Do not allow yourself to think
that your life is insignificant.
You are God's handiwork,
chosen and commissioned
for His purposes
."
Charlotte Gambill

In Process ~

I had considered
entitling this
 post
"An Immature Male"
 but it seemed to have negative
connotations for this
young male Pine Grosbeak
 that merely has not yet acquired
 an "of age" status
in which he will appear
like the above

thanks to Carol Garvin
for sharing the site
that revealed he is also not an
overdressed female
which is more modestly feathered.
 Yes, our days really have been this gray lately.

May the colors that delight you
brighten your weekend.

Waiting For Dawn ~

feels the light
 when the dawn is still dark."
