from the kitchen door: photos






On a whim, I moved my birdfeeders from the sideyard to the back, where I can see them from the kitchen window and door ...what a good move; I see so many more birds now. This morning robins, sparrows, mourning doves and a tufted titmouse.
I've been taking pictures through the door, which, at first it seemed to me did not yield the best pictures, but these near-silhouettes have a sparingness that appeals to me.

Nice pictures. I thaught the first picture was a painting. Maybe you should give it a try?

The photographs are very nice. The silhouettes create an aire of mystery in their appearance. Nice

I agree, I like the first and last one the best. We didn't put a feeder out this year and I do miss the little chickadees the most.

I like them, too. They remind me of Chinese brush painting.

The silhouetted birds are so appealing! Have you noticed that they are making more of a racket mornings? Or is that just wishful thinking?
