Creative use of color and other imagery for an interesting perspective. Enjoyed reading it today. Karen

Lovely image of the mustard valley and the red-winged blackbirds. I don't think I have seen the species, dear LNC. Thank you for introducing them to me. Love, Carolyn

wow, this startles the senses, Barbara. WAs this sunlight or perhaps a newly blossomed patch of yellow flowers? In any event, I just love the way it contrast with the black bird. It's not for a contest, is it? Love it.
