A Face to the Sun

As I was watching/photographing this White-throated sparrow thru the dining room window, the sun came out and shined on his sweet face. If you look closely you can see some left-over berry juice on his beak.

Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind you 
~ Maori Proverb

“‘“The Lord bless you and keep you;  

the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;  

the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”’

Numbers 6:24-26 NIV
