Brian has set us a challenge, and so I thought I’d sneak in an extra square today so I could take part. He is asking us to share the very last photo on our SD cards, and like his Sacred Kingfisher mine is of a bird. Well two in fact – one is obvious and one is not.

It is the one that is hidden that led me to take an impulse shot on New Year’s Day! Can you spot it? It is lined up with the left trunk of the beech tree. Not a great shot I know, but that can often be the case with impulsive shots!
I also realise it is almost impossible to see, but rest assured there is a Sparrowhawk there. All the other birds disappeared fast before it landed but the crow arrived moments after to investigate. And if you are wondering what makes it a bonus #JanuaryLight square, well the hint of blue of course has made me think of skylight!
wonderful artsy trees and two Sacred Kingfishers – and the impulse behind it made it just that much better

thank you so very much . . . although they are no Sacred Kingfishers. They are in Brian’s original post – my birds are a Crow and Sparrowhawk!

Wow – thanks for clearing that up for me – I just saw two birds in the tree and read the post and that was what I thought

Right after midnight tonight, it is posted 🙂 It was New Year’s Eve afternoon and it was sleeting. This is the light we have been having. Gray, with and without rain or sleet or ice. Sometimes, it’s so dark in the afternoon, it looks like night long before what ought to be sunset.

I think I may have at least one blue square left over from whatever month that was.

They were. I just checked the Squares folder in the Gallery app on this tablet and I still have a couple of blue squares and a few lines squares left over.

I couldn’t find Brian’s po… aah! the coffee is working! Found it now. But I leave my link to your bonus shot as well and just add Brian’s link as well. However, mine can’t be made square but the image is such a good one with which to start the new year: https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2020/01/03/a-heartfelt-bonus-for-brian-and-everybody/
