Are the cats anywhere in sight, Mary?? grin
Mary MacADNski: I trained them from birth to not interfere with the birds so they would never bother them. Chickadees land beside th cats and the cats never bother them. Since I was their mama and they hadn't imprinted on a cat, it was easy.
I like the bold diagonal, the silhouette quality, and the pretty pastels of the sky.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Red Pen.

Interesting shot Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Richa. I love yours today of the little girl with stars in her eyes looking at the baubles and stars she could buy.

This reminds me very much of the two sparrows we had on the back of our 1c when we still had it. Something biblical like two sparrows for farthing.

Nice that you teach your cats that way. Problem is that the neighbours don't teach their cats and I hope the chicadees can distinguish a friendly property - otherwise they become easy prey elsewhere.
Mary MacADNski: What is a 1c. Saying about the neighbours - well, I had my girls well trained for years. My daughter moved back home with her cat Clarke (you've seen lots of photos of him). Clarke was not at all trained and thought I'd set out a buffet for him. Meedless to say, I stopped feeding birds for the year and a half we had Clarke.

Mary MacADNski: My cats are acrobats in trees but have not become highwire artists yet.

Love the silhouettes Mary. Also LOL at Ginnie and Astrid.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Tracy. I love crows.
Very nice diagonal shot. I like the silhouettes
Mary MacADNski: Birds on a wire.
I really just wonder what they are making plans for! we've got those black crows everywhere here, yet they are so smart.
Mary MacADNski: These guys were waiting for me to feed them.
Two little birds silhouetted and Johnny Cash...fine by mesmile
Mary MacADNski: I love Johnny too.

"Sshh where's that damn cat?" "I dunno, but I read they can't climb wires...ammo at the ready tho'" smile
Mary MacADNski: My cats think the birds are their friends.

The bold composition is very pleasing and simple. Like it.

If they are crows, then that is a fat wire, Mary.
