Friday Hunt, 2016-15

It is a colder day than usual in the Nutmeg State of Connecticut - so, the spirit warms up very nicely at Teresa's fun photo meme, Friday Hunt. We look forward to the hunt, and this week I am using not vintage, but current pics :) Here are my choices for today's themes:

Begins with 'O': I like Orange! The early Spring sky in these parts will do! To the left is a hone pic of sunset at a local shopping center. To the right, it is a sunset, then from our back window at a west-southwest orientation...


Week's Favorite: There was freezing dew during the week and I like these, as the icy branches look distorted on this cold morn, which is what the ice did to the buds. Nice sky, but when will it begin to feel like April?


Spring/Fall:Patti captured yet another male cardinal on the forsythia. It looks like late November (even if it was this week) when the leaves fall off. To the right, some of the forsythia is sprouting their sunny leafy countenance. These views frame the beginning and end of Winter I'd say! As always, thanks to Teresa for hosting!

Worded Wednesday - The elusive cardinal

Not all birds wing south for the Winter, especially this cardinal. Our daughter caught this fellow through a window with a simple point-and-shoot camera. Nice catch, beautiful bird...see NC Sue for more!
