The Swan is so lovely VJ 🙂

These are great captures! I like all of them, but my favorite is snow boost. Chickadees remind me of my mother.

Awesome pics this week, V.J. Love the chickadee with the snow. Thanks for giving me one of those. You are so right about the gulls. Wow…that reminded me of being back in the military getting ready for a tactical offensive move. LOL! Love the swan too. I’ve never seen one. Would be a life bird for me. Watching Osprey feed is one of my favorite things to do. 🙂

It’s like a fleet of ships just waiting to start firing their bombs towards their target and those gulls were collateral damage. So funny! Great shot!
