Should I stay or should I go?

As I was going through some pics from a June outing, I saw this one of the Cedar Waxwings and the first thing that came to my mind was: "Should I stay or should I go?" by the Clash.

That was one of my favorite songs back in the late 80s. I thought it was fitting that I used a texture that had musical notes on it (right hand side) 

Anyone else remember that song?  It sure brought back some fun memories for me :)

Sharing With Others

Mr and Mrs House Finch in the snow ....you can barely see her but she is there :) 

What is most important is to find peace and to share it with others. To have peace, you can begin by walking peacefully. Everything depends on your steps.

Cardinal and Goldfinch Sharing

Whatever we possess becomes of double value when we have the opportunity of sharing it with others.

I LOVE to catch two different birds together - especially when they are sharing nicely.  And it gives you a size comparison too.

 I think their feathers are Amazing!

Alone you can go faster, but together we can go further.

The weight of the world is a trifle, if we all put our two fingers under it and try to lift together.

Cedar Waxwings are common visitors to my backyard trees. 
I feel very blessed to be able to enjoy their beauty :)
