We flew to Minnesota for a birthday party and decided to take one camera and one lens (a 16-85mm) for party shots. It was between 15 degrees below 0 and 5 above so when I saw the wildlife in her back yard which would have looked good thru the 300mm that I lens left at home I took pictures anyhow. The birds at the water and feeder were on a porch fairly close to a window that had double pane glass and a storm window and they scattered if they saw me so that's why you won't see very sharp images but they are kind of artistic. Hope you enjoy them.

Wonderful! So natural looking. Happy New Year!

Thank you Tony. Happy New Year to you too.

Love that splash of colour from the Pheasant, a great winter scene and suitably festive looking! 

Best Wishes for 2014!
