Impressionist Zither



wheat field applause
the sway against strange bird whistles
distant swish, waves of busy tails
lone horse grazing at the foot of a hill
cows intent on daytime

i hear those kingfisher blues
crowning glory on a feathery lakeshore

O I love those birds! We're just on a convergence of creeks at our homestead, but in the Spring the water is high enough to support one or 2. The rattling racket of their calls inspires me to get to work on the garden. In Australia they have kookaburras, which I think must be even crazier.
Enjoy the Passover...and I know you'll welcome in this comment a reference to the Christian Kingfisher whose call tomorrow will rattle my bones: Don't just lay there turning to dust! Get up and do the work!

Sunday blooms before us. Another day to rise with the sun.

I was alarmed.

What an absolutely beautiful bird! As you remember, over here their markings are more like a blue jay.

shot = photographed...yeah, that's what i meant! Thanks for headlining it, Richard.

Gorgeous bird, indeed. As is the hummingbird - the species seem to morph somewhat over here - my brother was amazed to see the difference in our crows - grey with white and black markings.

Blue Jays are fine, also - we get other bright blue birds here, but they seldom hold still long enough for me to capture their beauty on film.

I had the pleasure of seeing a kingfisher do an "aller-retour" on the little stream that backs her house.
Like a diamond arrow, so fast, this her, zither, under bridge her color with her.
