Isn't it amazing how they blend in. I can only imagine, with nature, how much we miss...Gods way of helping to protect these beautiful creatures I guess. Thankfully, a slight move allows us to catch their presence, such amazing sights to behold! We've been enjoying our owl, he's still staying close. Gorgeous pics Ms. A, as always!!!
Blessings,
Cindy

Gorgeous! When the birds disappear around here, we know to look for our well-hidden hawk.

Hoping he didn't come out of that tree and attack you ;o)

Reminds me of the elephant joke..

Q.Why do elephants wear red tennis shoes?

A. To hide in cherry trees, of course.
Did you ever see an elephant in a cherry tree?

They hide pretty well, don't they?

:-D

Mr Hawk thinks he is 'hidden'---but you saw him!!!! He's a beauty --but I want him to stay far away from my feeders and my little birdies!!!

What's the latest on the caterpillars? I'll have to go back and check your blog posts this past week.
Hugs,
Betsy
