Merry Christmas!!!





"Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful."  ~Norman Vincent Peale

The photos have nothing to do with Christmas other than being taken during the season.  The quote is one I found and I liked.  Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!!

  1. Is that a mockingbird, Cindy?
    He looks extremely happy!!
    Love the pine cone nestled in the pine straw. I refuse to rake mine because it's so pretty on the ground right now. The colors are great.
    Love your photos...always.
    We've had rain here today...and more expected tonight, but we had a lovely Christmas in spite of the raindrops.
    Merry Christmas, sweet friend.
    Hugs,
    Jackie

    1. It is a Mockingbird and I love all the straw, leaves and pinecones on the ground too. No rain here today but some expected tomorrow. Our day was ok. No one really in the mood but I think we all did better than I thought we would. I'm glad you had a lovely Christmas. Enjoy the rest of the week and have a safe and wonderful New Year.

      Merry Christmas Jackie,
      Love,
      Cindy

  2. I have never seen a Mockingbird, he looks so pretty sitting there in the trees, and I love that pine cone shot! I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and the new year brings you much joy and happiness.

    1. Judy we have more Mockingbirds here than any other place I know of. It's the Florida state bird. It has a sweet song and gets its name because it mimics other birds. I love Pinecones and if I didn't think people would get tired of them I'd be posting them frequently. I hope you had a Merry Christmas. Please have a safe and Happy New Year.

    1. Thank you Lisa. The blue was a surprise to me. I think it's just the way the light was reflected off of the velvet like leaves. The bird just sat there and I clicked away. Wish I could have gotten a little closer though. Happy New Year!!!
