Mellow Yellow

February 17, 2008 — HeyJules

It snowed again today.

I thought I was going to cry when I saw it coming down.

But then this little guy showed up.

And, before I knew it, I had mellowed right out.

    LOL - snow doesn’t make me cry until about the middle of March usually. I’d be crying all the time if it did! Lovely pics - I am starting to see them around here now too.

    Doesn’t it make you stretch in the direction of spring? Can’t wait for our goldfinches here in the Pacific Northwest to change into their bright yellow clothes again.

    These are beautiful, Julie. I can see you’re loving that lens! :-)

    Love these Jules, Goldfinches are so beautiful, and you did a great job in conveying that beauty.
