  7. I'm listening to Weather Report as I write this comment. Magic comes both visually and musically here. I LOVE visiting. Just went back three posts. The Stilt, the Smew and the Nuthatch all take my breath away. Thank you!

  8. With a beak like that, it's no wonder she pecked her way out of your magic bag. And I'm glad she did. Beautiful!

  24. She is beyond beautiful. I hope that Santa refills your magic bag for you (and for us). The weather gods have made you dip into it a bit lately. And each time you bring up treasure.

  25. I agree with EC. Each time you do indeed manage to bring up a treasure.

    Here's hoping for better weather soon, Bob.
