Believe It!

The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it.

 — J.M. Barrie

Just Winging It!

Opportunity is a bird that never perches.

A Race to the Fence Post

Success doesn't come to you... you go to it.

- Marva Collins

A Tufted Titmouse and a Male Cardinal race to the fence post.  Actually - I don't know if they were racing or not - but they both wanted that seed that was on the post.

Wings in the Wild

In our daily lives, we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but the gratefulness that makes us happy.

With Wings

"You were born with wings, 

why prefer to crawl through life?” 

― Rumi

Birds Play Keep Away

We are never more fully alive, more completely ourselves, or more deeply engrossed in anything, than when we are at play.

Inspired

Large or small, our actions forge our futures, hopefully inspiring others along the way.

~ Howard Schultz

Reena at Missing Moments inspired me by posting some awesome images made with DistressedFX. (iphone/ipad ap)  That is what I used on the Vulture above.

Hope you have a wonderful and INSPIRED day!   

 

Journey with Friends

A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.

Do Not Be Discouraged

Experts are simply master mistake-makers. They simply weren't discouraged by their countless initial mistakes.

 ~  Brandon A. Trean

Almost.....I almost got the ENTIRE bird - in this case - a Tufted Titmouse.  But, it was not meant to be.  I have often thought I would post my bird "bloopers" - shots I've taken hoping to get these amazing creatures in flight - that usually come out with just half the bird showing.  This time I managed to at least get his head in the shot.  

I'll Keep Trying :)

Flying Into The Sunset

Never waste any amount of time doing anything important when there is a sunset outside that you should be sitting under!

Mallards in Flight

There is beauty in all we know and beauty in all we don't know. Our journey is to love it all.
