I ended up accidentally hitting the "delete" button instead of the "publish" button (stupid me doing this on the small screen of my cell phone) obviously my fingers are to big for this c'',) So sorry....<br /><br />But back to you post, great pictures of the birds! I love the ones with the smiling ducks, they really do look happy and what a treat it was to see the woodpeckers :) You take such nice and clear photos.<br /><br />Have a happy upcoming weekend!<br />Birgitta xxHandmade and off-centeredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04938196970441674914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-14239882237510822672014-07-31T11:05:57.861-04:002014-07-31T11:05:57.861-04:00Wendy, *seriously* have you thought about sending ...Wendy, *seriously* have you thought about sending your pictures into national Geographic or the like... wow!

It isn't often but we do get pileated woodpeckers in our backyard. First time I saw one it was just amazing and still fascinating each time they visit. Amazing how LOUD they are. Herons here like to fish the backyard ponds, counting us to count our fish often. :o)Abby and Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12082914470199247665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-25815716260298186492014-07-31T07:38:38.930-04:002014-07-31T07:38:38.930-04:00OMG!!!
