Your "thru the window" catches are pure magic, Laurie. I almost put out my hand to pat these birds. Yes, I now live just east of Spokane and we did get another 5-6 inches this morning...enough already!!! #6973051

I am Not Surprised..I have Seen Her Windows...They Sparkle!!!

Thanks everyone for your wonderful comments especially about how clean my windows are!!!! This is a fairly newly replaced window and located just outside a feeder. Yes, I do tempt my birds with tasty treats to keep them happy in hopes I might capture a pose or two. The rosey color in the BG is the barn...cocoa color, but faded over time makes for a pleasing BG, I think!

Well, SiS...they are toes...so I guess toenails fits!!! But then again, I could be wrong! #6973206
