Out My Window

This little fellow was in our crab tree out our kitchen window today.  I thinik it’s some kind of warbler, and maybe a female or a young one.  I was waiting for the hummingbird to come by again, and he didn’t!  It’s like they know when I’m lying in wait.  I read that the hummingbirds are only flying 20% of the time, and they spend the other 80% of the time perching on a branch.  It’s because flying, and especially hovering, uses so much energy.  Well, I think he was perching extra time today!  But this little bird was worth watching.  I like the effect of the crab tree out of focus behind him.  It makes it look sort of watercolor-ish.

    Oh, Sue, that is pretty enough to be framed or made into a card. Your photography would be good on cards. I’m going to frame the Rebecca card you
    sent with my fabric. I need to take a picture of what I won/you sent and post it. I was waiting to see if I could be lucky enough to win the scissors and I could put it all in one picture. Tee hee! Congratulations to Linda!
