Come away, O human child: To the waters and the wild with a fairy, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand
-- William Butler Yeats

You tide me over
With a warmth I'll not forget
But I can only give you love
Fall on me
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same

Ain't no sunshine
Sat on the concrete to take these... that'll put the fire out. :)

My delight and thy delight
Walking, like two angels white,
In the gardens of the night:
My desire and thy desire
Twining to a tongue of fire,
Leaping live, and laughing higher:
Thro' the everlasting strife
In the mystery of life.
Love, from whom the world begun,
Hath the secret of the sun.
Love can tell, and love alone,
Whence the million stars were strewn,
Why each atom knows its own,
How, in spite of woe and death,
Gay is life, and sweet is breath:
This he taught us, this we knew,
Happy in his science true,
Hand in hand as we stood
'Neath the shadows of the wood,
Heart to heart as we lay
In the dawning of the day.

Birds Watching
These were all taken this morning within 20 minutes, plus some I didn't show, the blue jay and starlings, some red-winged blackbirds, a small group of dark-eyed juncos, Carolina wrens, mourning doves, and overhead I saw 2 migrating flocks of Canada geese, and one of snow geese.
1 & 2 Northern Cardinal, male, female
3 Common Grackle
4 Brown-headed Cowbirds
5 Song Sparrow
6 & 7 White-throated Sparrow
Busy busy birds! I really only went out because I saw the Northern flicker (woodpecker) in a tree across the street, ended up missing that one but stayed for the show. :)

Tip-toe onto the Tulip Tree
I thought this bald eagle was carrying a fish, but it was just his huge rear end... It was still very exciting. :)

Sleepy-face Sunny-boy
Owen, less than 5 minutes out of bed; shot #2 is a total blur, but when I see it, I hear his high pitched puppy yawn, "y-eee-ooOoow". :) Then we escorted Sammy part-way to the bus stop.
I cropped that first one because it was crooked as heck, but the colours haven't been altered at all...We were all that bright. :)

Sunshine in a Bag
It's really in the bag, HERE, if you'd like to see my sunrise in motion.
