Calling all artists/photographers

[Phil Fourie]

Nice pics.... ummmmm, where are the pics of all the fish?

Sorry, I do not have an underwater camera, as that is where the stayed the whole day

We didn't catch one fish from 6 the morning till 6 the evening and it wasn't just me, that would have been understandable cause I am a poor fisherman, but two of my friends and my brother were with and they usually catch a lot and even they didn't get anything.

O, ps, where are those hunting photo's, at least I have tons of them

Here's an acrylic painting I did that I've got hanging in the house. This time of year I need to see the color green. It's of a pine woods down the street. I liked the way the light hit off the trees.

Lovely painting! Is it a Stellar Jay?

Thanks RW. Blue Jay. They're out here all year round. I had to look in my bird book to find out what a Stellar Jay was actually. I guess they stay out west there, and these stay east.

Edit: I think Jesus was a painter/photographer too. He pointed the crowd to nature and used it to tell us how the birds and flowers of the field played into God's kingdom; i.e. Mt 6. I'd said I liked the way the light hit off the trees in my painting, so I can point to nature too and use that to make a point: Like no two trees are the same, so no two people are. And God's light reflects off each one of us in different ways, as he uses us. I think that's truth too.

What a busy day at the bird feeders today! I guess they are all feeding and getting ready for this cold front that's approaching.

Today I saw:
Nuthatches
Woodpeckers
Sparrows
Finches (LOTS)
Warblers
Titmice
Chickadees
Cardinals (LOTS)
and even a dove

Here are two pictures. I uploaded more to my photobucket site too.

I named this photo: Nervous Hands.

While we had our Christmas dinner tonight for our church, a friend performed two songs after the prayer. She was so nervous her hands were shaking. She performed flawlessly. I saw her shaking hands and took this photo.

Beautiful, piney woods! Did you shoot any food for the larder?

No

I was gonna go rabbit hunting today but the snow and sleet are coming down. May go later in the day once it stops (if it stops) and see if I can. I have allot of Grouse that run around my area so I'll be looking for them also.

Off tomorrow so I'll spend part of the morning walking around for exercise in the snow and carry my shotgun also

I took lots of pictures in the last few days. Here are three of them.

A squirrel at my bird feeder.

Cayman stretching.

A house sparrow eating suet.

Love you,
