Another entry in the 100 Steps series started by Myfanwy Hart, taken in the park near my home –
There was a surprising amount of noise coming from these bushy weeds, or weedy bushes.
By approaching slowly and quietly, I was able to spot this little fellow as he caught his breath. There were lots of other similar birds sheltering or feeding, but they stayed in motion or out of sight.
A reminder of warmer days, high in the bare branches.
These plants have a very different palette from my first picture, a wintry grey-white-brown look. (And apparently they’re less attractive to small birds.)
What a lovely 100 steps and especially to the last image π
Thanks, Gilly – I’m partial to that one myself!
Red is okay. it’s the accents in white that you need to watch out for π
You made me laugh! So far we’ve avoided the white accents here, though not very far away it’s gone past “accents” all the way to “blanket”. π
no accents here just yet, thankfully π
We’re enjoying some accents in white today–not many, unfortunately, but enough to be seasonal.
I’m still allergic to those accents after the amount of snow we had in 2009 and 2010, but I’ll admit it’s pretty!
You’ve captured some lovely colours and textures here. Very evocative of the time of year. Thanks for taking part.
Thank you, and thanks for coming up with the idea!
