The essence of a bird...

I woke up to it snowing outside, so when it stopped, I took the opportunity to find some beauty around me.. In the extra is a collage of some of it... Being dark, a high ISO was required which introduced a lot of grain. Some say grain detracts, I just think it adds another layer of beautiness... 

A personal thanks to a blipper that posted on her blog words that touched my heart.. A reminder that if we go keep going through darkness there will alway be a light somewhere...
