My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord, in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up. Psalm 5: 3
Keeping good cheer
Throughout the year
Is not easy to do
For this cold Junco
With only feathers to wear
To maintain body heat,
Their constant prayer
Is to find plenty to eat...
We hear them rejoice..
And so gladly sing..
When given God's choice
To live until spring...
Poetry by me AJP
This was a difficult shot as we weatherize our windows and it was challenging to manually focus through two window panes.. plus the plastic over the storm window had vapor between from the frost...so I knelt underneath where there was a clearer spot and angled my camera upwards. .
I have the utmost respect for these brave little survivors who come to our bird feeder daily but without helping them along over the winter with sunflower seeds the birds would have a pretty rough existence...
