They are some noisy rascals for sure and they do make great sentries. Nicely penned, Kim:)

Lovely hakiu Kim, never seen a red wing . Photos off the net can be put straight onto poem. Personal pics you have to save to your blog and upload from there. When I done Shelia's knickers I added knickers to the seagull pic, and it worked, For royalty free pics I use stockvault.net. No need to worry about copyright. Tom.

Thanks, Tom! I saw one in a garden in Chicago! So impressive. Scary too! I lingered too long and felt his wings draw a warning against my back. No need to tell me twice!

Thank you, Anne-Lise! Ever since I saw a lovely scene of purple coneflowers and the red-winged blackbird, the image remains! I have a great photo but don't know how to work the photo into PS!
