Those a great pictures!! It's so cool how you guys have squirrels and robins and all that...I wish we did. I'm jealous of everything lol.
The last picture of the bird is really good. I also like the picture of the squirrel in the tree. :)

Hi Madeleine, I have not talked to you in a while, sorry about that! You have cool birds over there, how about those blue birds your mom put up, I wish we had those! Well we do but I have never seen them. We have two types of squirrels, red and grey (sometimes they are black) the red ones are small and persnickity little fellows, they screetch and stomp thier feet, it's really funny to watch them, maybe I can get a video of them and put up if I can sneak it in without them noticing me. The grey squirrels are just plain pigs, they eat everything!!

Great pictures! The landscapes remind me of a phrase that I heard somewhere along the line: the land was tucked in under a blanket for the winter ....

I loved three pictures especially - the little brown bird with snow on its peak, the squirrel in the tree and the bottom bluejay - the blues are magnificent!!

There are about a half dozen bluejays wintering over here - I see them around my yard a lot. Really happy to see them because a couple of years ago there was some concern that some disease was killing them off - there were announcements out to report any dead bluejays we found - I remember that I found 2 over that winter and I did report them to the Wildlife Department.

Thats too bad your blue jays were dying off, glad to hear they came back. That field with the barns is in our town, it is another one of my favorite places to take pictures of, I got out of work a few minutes early so I swung in there before it got too dark, the sun was setting behind her place, it looked so nice. I wonder why my pictures are coming out blurry lately, anyone have a clue? Is it my shaky hands, the object moving on me? is my camera dirty? I don't remember having this issue before. Is there an anti shake thing I could have turned off?

Really nice shots, I like the cardinal & red squirrel in the tree especially :)

I don't know about the anti-shake. You can always try putting your camera back to default settings.

The first 4 or 5 have a lovely country feeling. Blue jay at the end is a great pc!

My pictures are blurry sometimes when there's a great difference between temp of the camera and the air. Or difference of humidity.
