Inexplicably, I never posted my Bluethroat finish. So here it is!
The Bluethroat is an attractive insectivor. It resides in Europe and Asia, with a few in northern Alaska, so it's not a bird I'm likely to see.
My attractive bird this week is the Chestnut-backed Chickadee.
The chickadee was active at my peanut feeder.
He'd break off a small piece...
...then fly to this young acer to eat his meal.
He posed nicely for me...
...and gave me some good looks.
Your Bluethroat is a beautiful stitch. What a handsome chickadee!
ReplyDeleteHi Beth,
ReplyDeleteDo you have the free bird patterns from Waxing Moon Designs? I just printed off the Spring Bluebird. They also have the Summer Sparrow, Autumn Blackbird and Winter Cardinal.
I follow your blog I just don't post as I usually read on an iPod late at night!! You gave me info about a trail camera, which we purchased and do enjoy. Thanks you!! It's super cold here in East Tennessee and maybe a bit of snow Friday and Saturday.
Have a Great January!! I really enjoy your blog!!

That is a lovely stitch. The little chickadees are hard to beat in the bird world. Even though there are more colorful birds, the chickadees are among my favorites.
