Wild Birds: "I'm Bringing Booty Back"

Birds are just as lovely from the back as from the front. I happen to think that's true. Their feather patterns are so much easier to study and admire when they decide to keep their backside to my camera.

LEM Photo Challenge: Orange

This week's photo challenge over at Live Every Moment is orange. I fully expect to see lots of images of oranges in one form or another. I had oranges in my fridge and believe me it certainly crossed my mind. I had hoped to find something different and Ms. Cardinal sitting on a limb and waiting for her turn at the bird feeder gave me a perfectly natural orange to capture. Unlike her counterpart, the bright red male, her brightest feature is her orange beak. She became my orange inspiration this week.
