Birds

On my fence.

And the show goes on.

laying claim to seed

co2

me too

co3

come on … make way

co4

as the seed dwindles, and more birds arrive, tempers flare

and a bit of jostling takes place

this spot is mine, I said

I make a movement, and they’re off, but not for long, one comes back

some won’t bother coming back, but the regulars will, even though they obviously suspect I’m still there behind the flimsy net curtain

Have a good day.  🙂

Works for me.

I think the default on this camera phone is Windows 8 CameraPro. Last week, I finally discovered that there isn’t a macro or closeup setting on the new Nokia Camera – no wonder I was having trouble. I’ve downloaded an app to take care of this, but have yet to learn to use it.  I hate not having a side camera button, like on the Nokia Lumia 520.

I hope you are having a lovely day.  🙂
