Even if there is snow, the little critters still have to eat.
Even if someone totally disagrees with you or does things differently, you may learn something from them. Avoid getting trapped in the mindset, “this is the way it has to be,” and free your mind to consider other possibilities.

In the forest deep – it is thought I sleep
but if honesty is the order of the day
then I must confess to always be at play
for I have been here so long and my roots run so deep
that while I look like I am standing still
every molecule of my being is alive and unafraid
of whatever mischief I can display,
For living is an art I have honed well
See if you can look away
when I deign to display
my perfect blending into the landscape today.
Oh and by the way
Life is art is PL Precept #1
wanna come play
you can be the sun, I will be the moon
together we will make it a perfect day.

Good Morning everyone…
The picture above, was taken by local nature photographer Dan Cadieux, https://www.instagram.com/dancadphotography I have known Dan now for many years, we run into each other in/on the nature trails in the area. He knows of my love and friendship with crows. He shared this picture with me, that he took a few years back. It was taken on a day when the temperatures were just above zero degrees, it was a fall morning, the wasps were semi-dormant…. his patience and quiet determination got him this great photo… Isn’t it fabulous. If you love nature, and like pictures that show case the nature around us, please give Dan’s photo gallery a look. He has a unique way of presenting his finds….. I’ve seen him lying in the mud on the side of the road * camera focused on a puddle where robins are bathing for hours if need be to get just the picture he wants… thanks Dan for sharing your amazing talent with us….

When the “boyz” decorate, they don’t fool around, these are just a few of the trees that decorate their home during the holidays.
I usually go out to take pictures after they are set up…. this will all be enjoyed with their annual New Year’s “come visit” party…I have watched as every year, a new year or new theme gets added.. Even the exterior of the home is festive bringing a smile to all who drive by …Believe on cold dreary days travelling through the snowy challenges.. Canadian winters can offer up… seeing this festive display shining out at you never fails to bring smiles and cheer a traveller on their way. (promise more pictures soon)
This year I have been visited by a persistent flu germ…. what a nuisance, It is visiting the least patient of humans… its been an unwelcome guest for weeks. leaving me tired and uninterested in simply everything. How are you doing? We are days away from the jolly holiday …you ready?
If you are going to do it, do it joyfully
If you have to do something, choose to do it with joy and enthusiasm. By doing so you will experience a deeper sense of beauty.
