The Birds

I play a daily game with these birds. I come back after walking the dog to find every one of those wires to the pole just full of birds chattering to each other, most mornings. By the time I get in to grab my camera they all rapidly disperse. Today I did manage to get these few. I think it was such a glorious morning they had to be fooled into thinking Spring was around the corner...no such luck:(

I know the obvious thing to do is to take the camera with me..have you ever tried to scoop up poop with a large heavy D-SLR around your neck and struggle with a lively dog at the same time LOL
