This is fabulous Mary!

Oh this is cool Ann, I'm going to look for the show. Love the font.

Well said!

I want to be you! So awesome, and so lucky. I am enjoying the rabbits near work, and I'm a bit miffed someone bought the empty lot and now there is a container on it and stakes in the ground(possible building soon). Don't they know that's the rabbit(hare?) plot of land? yeesh, Humans, what can you do with them, eh? Thank you for thinking of me, very much appreciated!

Oh so much to look at. Love it. I like both framing techniques. The photo block; is the "frame" part cut out to reveal the background? Same with the S in Snow, it has a nice little separation with the R in Robins. That must've been exciting to have that many Robins all at once. Edit: I see the photo block is a mask, the other comments came in as I was typing the first questions. And the answer to the S as well. Thank you, it's nice to turn the computer on and see such wonderful eye candy. Good for the soul and no calories!

Hahaha, crows are much smarter than me! Even the cats rule over me. Our snow melted in a day with highs in the mid teens. Today at 7am it was -10 c But the sun is up so it should hit mid-high teens today I hope.

That's so beautiful. I'd love to see flocks of robins. I'm happy when I see just ONE! We had snow too, and it was quite windy and blowing...when I woke up I thought it was November again. My crow fam has finally returned. You know how the female crow does the begging behavior when they are getting nest/eggtime ready(to remind the mate to bring her food when she's on nest duty). Well, I think my crow fam does that to me. The scenario as follows: land on wire, caw till silly human slave hears (they are practically deaf!), silly human (me) runs for the peanuts and bark butter bits and heads outside to spread the joy.

WOW! Love this Ann.

Wow! they are gorgeous!

Thank you for posting the journaling. What an interesting bird, with the adaptation to eat waxy berries. I like the slipped-in look and great touch with the music notes. I was watching some peculiar behavior of crows in the school field behind my house.....after confirming with the binoculars....someone left their black sneakers in the field!

What a great view. And wow, the farm is far away. I know, angle of view from a wide angle lens. That is such a pretty photo. A sea of blue would be so peaceful. I just want to touch Nell's ears, they look so soft.

I agree, it's fabulous! The colors all go so well together.

As a major consumer of flax seed I love this picture. Even though my cousins in Sask grow it, I've only been there when the seed has just been planted. Does is smell nice too? I cant remember what they told me about it.

You could meet in the middle...maybe see Mary too, when she's on her RV travelling adventures.

Thank you for this. an my Nature Alberta magazine arrived and there is an article about native AB bees. Looking forward to some down time to read it. I will try your bottle cap/honey solution too. The grass is just starting so show signs of green. we are expecting snow next week. I will dig out my stump...I ran out of time and didnt get the holes drilled. That's on the to-do list for this weekend. Looking forward seeing my bee action in the yard....they might be the only flying creature I get since the Merlin moved in. I cant see the Merlin, just hear it. What a tease.

I'm in. I was out, since I'm so far behind on so many projects, but just reading comments makes feel like I'm missing a party! So, here I am.

Happy Birthday Corrie! I hope your day was fabulous! have a wonderful time in the US, looking forward to your return. And all the layouts that will come with it. Cheers!

Awesome! I was contemplating the bird baths too. I have a plastic one out, because it's freezing up at night still. My other ones are cement and one is ceramic, so not good in freezing weather. The bees are in the ground, right? I am going to google for my area to find out when they will emerge so i can put a "no-yard work" rule on the backyard ("rules" is an inside joke with hubby...I'm always making up rules for him and he wonders why he has 483 rules, while I have none). I will check out my bird book to learn the difference in the male and female. I wish I knew what this Merlin is calling about. If it's for a mate, or call it's mate or did it lose it's mate. Mine has pigeons it's can go for, really fat overweight pigeons! I wasnt thrilled they claimed the yard, I'm feeding top notch food ......to pigeons! And they are getting very fat.

This is new to me. I started at the campus in May 2020. thank you for re-posting. it. It's stunning! I'm really quite blown away by it. And of Ann's friend's shot. You magazines are so real, I've mentioned before, when I started I thought you were a photographer for a magazine...that what I told my husband. BTW...my guess is that 'rump' is a gopher? On my grandfathers farm they had guns set up to shoot them....how HORRIFYING!

Oh, thank you for this! I just love Robins. And this is a beautiful photo. I will keep a look out for them. We have a new Merlin who's taken over the tree beside my garage (in my neighbours yard). He/She sits up there calling away. I don't know if it's one of last years babies from the pair down the road of if it's one of the pair and it's lost it's partner. Anyway, it means less birdy activity in my yard. 😥 Or maybe they are busy building nests right now.

I'm glad you mentioned the kit. I would have never seen that site. The font it nice isn't it. I just went and found it. I have a family member who loves Star Wars.

Wow Sharla, what a beautiful bird. I love that color. it is close to a robin, which should be making an appearance in my area soon...I hope. Does this bird have a nice song. Looks like some beautiful blossoms in the background.

I googled it, is it a designer called Synergy Ink? I found the kit at https://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/digital-art/kits/star-gazer-page-kit/ And there was a second kit called Nebula transfers. I saw some really nice kits on that site.

He's calling for Allan! Allan! Allan! hahahahaha google this: Funny talking animals: Alan!.. Alan!.. Steve! | Walk on the Wild Side - BBC and you'll get it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaPepCVepCg Hopefully this link works. You can also google Allan Allan Allan and you'll get just the Allan part.

The shadowing on those folds is outstanding! I like that they are folded to different thickness and the shadow reflects that. I love the photos, they are such a joy to watch arent they.
