Sunday Stills...Happy New Year





This is my favorite shot of the year. Or at least I think so. I love birds and hummers are among my very favorites. The two that hatched at our place this summer were nearly as tame as chickens, but  lot more fun.


As to my photographic hopes for 2012. I hope I have the camera with me when I need it and that the birds will hold still and the flowers will shine and the light will be right and things will fall together. If they don't, well, I will still have fun and I hope you do too.


Happy New Year to Everyone!


For more Sunday Stills......

  7. Yes, yes, yes! Please keep your camera ready, because you have eyes to see what is wonderful and the right words to share your wonders with us. I sure look forward to another year of following your adventures. May all blessings be yours in the coming year.

  8. The little devils are so much fun to watch - I have to go to OK to my sister's to see 'em, though. None around here.

    Happy New Year to the denizens of Northview Diary!

  12. ^^What Woodswalker said so well! I love that photo, and I remember well the blog about the juvenile hummers.

    I do hope that 2012 will start out with furnace repairs and real heat - preferably before this week's bitter cold. Any current news about that?

    Thank you for a wonderful year of all the goodness that you serve up for us. I admire your humor and upbeat attitude, and reading your blog always makes my day a bit better.

    NW, thanks dear friend. You brighten my life! We sure are ready for central heat in any form. Prolonged hypothermia seems to be a pretty fair weight loss strategy but I am plumb tired of it. Lol, Happy New Year

    TCS, thanks!
