I know that we are in the Christmas season,but today I want to step back about two months,into October.
I have picked a few pictures which I enjoy.
All of today's pictures were taken from my deck.I can hardly wait to enjoy that space again,come springtime.
This little Yellow-rumped Warbler,dressed in the subdued colours of fall and winter,is checking me out.
At one end of my deck I have this heated birdbath. Obviously it was not being heated when this picture was taken,but now that we have freezing temperatures I do have it plugged in so the birds can enjoy a drink,even in winter.
The Black-capped Chickadee is one of my favourite birds.
They can be counted on to show up when all others disappear.
I really like how this little fella would come and sit on the lattice which surrounds the deck.I think he is a perfect addition to my deck.
Looking up and away from the birds I noticed these cloud shadows.
I think they are unique and pretty.
The heavens declare the Glory of God!
The tree in the picture above is the same one you see in this picture.Here you can see it's yellow leaves,because the sun is highlighting it so well.
This is also taken from my deck and it is looking south-east,into my yard.
Perhaps a thought about Thanksgiving is still in order.
Thought for Today:
Dear God,no words are great enough
To thank You for just living,
and that is why everyday
Is a day of Thanksgiving.

Every day is Thanksgiving, indeed....and those are GORGEOUS photos, Ruth. Thank you for blessings us with them.
amen!
enjoyed all of these photos. those little birdies, especially!
Wow, Ruth. Fabulous shots, love the chickadee. They are so cute, I like watching them in my yard.
The little chickadees are busy here, too. I enjoyed coming here and seeing some color. Thankful for you!
Lovely photos, Ruth. Everyday should be a day of thanksgiving--we are all so blessed. Mickie
The warbler is a beautiful little critter and the prayer is perfect!
My mom gave Frankie a solar powered bird bath but we're having trouble finding a place for it that is safe from marauding cats. there are at lest 3 dozen roaming around loose and they love to hunt around our feeders. The birds have learned that they can eat in peace when the dogs are out but our lease forbids outdoor pets so they can only go out when they're with us.
Beautiful post, Ruth.. We all do need to be thankful each and every day --and not just on Thanksgiving. We do have so much to be thankful for.
Love your bird photos. I need to clean up my heated birdbath and get it ready for the winter birds. Thanks for the reminder.
I love Chickadees also.
Hugs,
Betsy

Lovely photos, Ruth. I especially like the first photo of the warbler, but the chickadees are always a delight.
Ruth, lovely photos. I do so love all the little creatures!
Oh Ruth, these are Fabulous! And I agree .... Everyday should be Thanksgiving day!
Your yard is lovely Ruth and the chickadees are my favourite birds too. Beautiful photos. It is always good to be grateful for all the lovely things we have been blessed with throughout the months and years.
I think my favorite picture is the little chickadee in the lattice, so cute! Yes, EVERY day needs to be Thanksgiving!
I love your header!!
Very nice pictures, Ruth! It's never too late for Thanksgiving!
You're so right, Ruth. Every day should be a day of thankfulness and every day a celebration of His coming, regardless of the season. That first photo is exquisite. The yellow on the bird blends so nicely with the yellow of the background.
Just what I wrote a friend yesterday - Thanksgiving - good anytime! Love your photos, your yard, that gorgeous sky with the clouds! Awesome!
I enjoyed your blog today. So pretty and so meaningful. God bless!
Everyday IS thanksgiving isn't it Ruth? Your pictures are so beautiful, I love the ones of the little chickadee. They're so sweet. Blessings, Diane
Beautiful photos, Ruth. We don't have chickadees around our area. We have to go back up into the mountains to see them. Love the shot of the one in the lattice.
Beautiful post, Ruth! Love your little Chickadee, and the cloud photo is terrific.
Those little birds are so cute and your photos are absolutely fantastic. Indeed, God's beauty is everywhere around us.
Gorgeous photos, Ruth. Those chickadees certainly are a curious little bird.. bold for their size.
Love the images.. Especially of the cloud line... :)
Amen!
This is a marvelous post and a great reminder of how much we have for which to be thankful. Your deck is a wonderful place to appreciate the glory of God.
amen!
i really enjoyed looking at these lovely photos. i love each one of them, especially the lil' birds.
hope your day is going well.
Beautiful prayer and perfect for the photos. How wonderful that you have warblers come to your yard. I love Chickadees anytime.
Ruth, those pictures are gorgeous. The birds are so sharp it looks like you could reach out and grab them.
Beautiful photos, Ruth. I love your positive attitude. You are so right that we should be thankful every day. :)
How nice of you to have a heated birdbath for the birds to enjoy. You captured some very cute bird photos. I really like the one of the small bird nestled in the lattice work.
