Mono Monday...Still Life

I was on the phone...in my van...speaking to Naturelover...asking this question...

"How do you interpret todays subject of still life?"

"I think of fruits and flowers. That's what I did."

"Oops Shelley...I gotta go. Gotta shoot me a bird!"

I know...it's not still life. But...the bird was sitting very still, and it's alive...which means it has a life. How still? 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes. When I finally pulled away...he was still sitting there.

I tried to call Shelley back, to make sure she didn't think I thought she was second fiddle to a turkey buzzard, but she didn't pick up. As it turned out, I think I could have kept talking to her...on speaker phone...'cause I don't think this guy would have gone anywhere.

Again...the baby robins next door wouldn't lift their heads. I have a picture of the hairless wonders on day four of their lives, and 4 "painted" horse shots on my FLICKR PAGE.

Thanks to Rainie for hosting...even if the shot doesn't fit.
