If only the painted bunting would return. We've had such a cold winter, I'm wondering if he decided to settle further south this year. If that's the case, then maybe he'll stop back by Pollywog Creek on his trip north in the spring.
Our unusually cold winter was the subject of an amusing conversation between Louis and Emily this afternoon.
Emily: It's colder here than it is in Kansas City - that's just not right!
Louis: Emily, don't you ever read your Bible? Emily: What? Louis: What did Paul say? Emily (after a short pause): Ummm...about the weather in Kansas City?
At this point, without any idea of where Louis was going with his questioning, I was totally cracking up. It seems that Louis was going to relate Emily's comment about it being warmer in St. Louis than it was here to a lack of contentment, but by the time he took the conversation in that direction, we were laughing so hard that it was a lost effort.
By the way, Emily faithfully reads her Bible and she knows very well what Paul said.

I'm a sucker for reflections, and this one is simply lovely!
I love both the reflection picture and the Cardinal one as well.
This story is absolutely precious!
The picture of the reflection is one of my all time favorites of your work. And the cardinal-well it is stunning. God's genius is creation is beautifully displayed in your photos!
Your CDs go out in the morning. They will go media rate which is quite slow. I am going to send you a couple of questions and if you will answer them, I will post a blog about your site and tell my sistas that they simply must stop by and enjoy!!
I spoke at a Women's Confernce this weekend and we just had a glorious time in the Lord. He met with us in a mighty way as we studied the book of Ephesians about developing the aroma of Christ on your life. It was a great blessing to get to be a part of it.
I hope all is well at the Creek. I am feeling much better and my sweet man did indeed wait on me hand and foot!!He treated me like a queen. Blessings, sweet bloggy friend, and may the Lord bless you and keep you.
Beautiful as usual. I favour the "Monet".
Beautiful. And what Paul said... wouldn't it be such a different world if everyone lived in that sentiment?
Thank you so much for allowing me to add you to my list!
This photographs are absolutely stunning. The color and detail are magnificent!
Hi Patricia,
Pollywog Creek is my funny little get-away during the week. When I look out the window at the dirty snow and turn back to wipe runny little noses, I think of that happy little tree frog and all your beautiful pictures. It sure brightens my day and gives me encouragement!
And Thursday would be perfect. :)
Patricia,
I agree, Monet would have loved to paint these trees! The Cardinal and the Goldfinches are fabulous bird portraits.
Would you be willing to share the brand of your camera and the lens(es) you are using?
Let's hope that winter packs up and leaves soon! :-)
That photo on the top is really beautiful, almost dreamlike. Beautiful.
