Inspiration DSC_8777 - a photo on Flickriver

            As of late, my inspiration for my hobbies such as photography and playing on Flickr has been lacking.  Elvis (red-shouldered hawk) is trying to help me with that.  He has been visiting pretty often and when he does, I am inspired to grab the camera. 

This image was taken through the living room window.  Elvis was sitting on top of the songbirds feeding station that is about 12 feet away.  From there it's easy to spot frogs and lizards.  It's really not a great spot to hang out if one is looking for a bird to snack on.  Although, I am sure he would be delighted to partake if the opportunity arose.  

Best wishes for a fantastic, happy and healthy year to you and yours.  May your blessings be many, and your troubles be few.  Happy snapping.
