jones'n

You jones'n for a jones?

or you jones'n for some wisdom?

POW!  You can have it all!

                   (Now it might have cost this old crow $60+ for her baby bird to gift this, but what a gift!)

BREAK BREAD

Fight the flight,

                                        turn back and see.

           everyone's  coming                                                          to dine                   

with thee.

(Break bread with your neighbours, it's in you to share.)

Toil and Trouble

Toil and Trouble....

Boil and Brew

More for me,

And More for You!

From the friends of the feathered,

comes a burgeoning interest

 in these wee                        

        

       wingless

wannabes!!

The streamlining is enviable.



Catch and release

said the old crow.

...and I will be back next year....

crow on vacation

CAW  CAW  CAW

'cause

it's what I do.

While on vacation, I quest the elusive .....

                                                                                            

                            Eureka! 

Add that to my string of precious!

EXPIRED

Whatever happened?

I was in the basement on the usual laundry run when I came across this guy hanging around.  I backgrounded with paper to try and capture the pose.  So what happened?  Noxious laundry fumes?  Did he/she feel death coming and choose to dangle for one last pitch at a scream?  Ran out of web?  Enquiring minds want to know... 



Tick Tock

Any crow worth her feathers should know that watches make a mighty fine set of shiny.  Now, any crow with a bit of bird brained sense can figure out ways to raise the bar on their bling.  (Did I say bar?  Well, looky here, it's happy hour!)

My mission: Make time stand still.  Well, maybe not.  Maybe I just want to celebrate some shiny...

Now,

 my 'shiny' shines,

 but doesn't really tick. 

 No sweat off my tock,

but it got me

          thinking.

(thinking thinking thinking)

Watches are for time

so set some time.

Cheers, slainte, and salute

to a very fine

time of day.

             (Please pardon the "five o'clock shadow"!!)

Uh-oh....

                         Uh-oh... 



                                                         whispered the folks of the forest.

Heart of Stone

heart of stone



Nay, stone of heart!

A little love where you least expect it.

Shut your gob!

Now I suppose, through the eyes of a mother,

one might be drawn to nurture.

NOW I KNOW, THROUGH THE EYES, (AND EARS), OF

A NEIGHBOR,

ONE MIGHT BE DRAWN TO SAY,

"SHUT YOUR GOB!"
(I heard and found 8 of these little blighters in one day.)



Dew tell...

Dew tell, there's more....

 

 

.... much, much more.

holy crow!

Just watch a while.....

I think you'll like my show....

Wait, there's more....

thankyouverymuch.





FREE TO BE....

Not too wee....

to be....

FREE!!!

(and doesn't your heart smile to see such bravery...)

BIRD-BRAINED POW

POW

pearl of wisdom

Never ever take your blood pressure at the grocery store while in the company of toddlers.

Well, you can imagine.

If you can't imagine, this POW is my gift to you.

Hello Spring!

Hello Spring!

                                                      you make me feel....

'spring in my step, puddle in the pasture' happy!

                                                                                 HAPPY !

SHINY BUTTONS

My nest has more than a few collections of shiny things.  Lovely shiny things burried in layers of shiny and not so shiny things.   Their only role, is to sit in clusters awaiting my attentions.  Until....

a niggling of an idea....

Hmm'ing, and haw'ing... and  a bit of flight of fancy...

                                                     and now my shiny buttons are only a flap away! 

DARE TO BE....

DARE TO BE...

FREE TO BE...
