cute little buddy
Yeah, I’m dying to know what kind of bird it is!
Cool picture and what a pretty bird! I’ve actually been trying to use my Google-fu and a handy bird book to figure out what it is for the last few minutes…conclusion, I know nothing about birds.
It’s probably a Ruby-crowned Kinglet ( though I much prefer your name for it! ) …I just googled it – http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Ruby-crowned_Kinglet/lifehistory/ac
i wonder if you could do face recognition ~ Hellenjc is right i’m sure..
That is the cutest little thing since baby sloths!
Ruby-crowned Kinglet! Cool!
I just couldn’t believe how cute it was, hopping about on the snow, pecking at the tiniest of specks of what I only hope was food.
what a funky little bird, with a cool haircut 🙂
Thank you for this lovely picture….
Adorable! Cool and confident.
Are we sure it’s not a Surfin Bird?
Absolutely! Everyone knows that the Ruby-crowned Kinglet is a kickass surfer.
Bird, bird, bird
Bird is the word!
Haha, what a beauty! I’m so tired of snow (or mostly ice) and cold, grey days. Gimme colors – flowers or birds will do! 🙂
Hey there! How’s your back?
Funny timing, but I just got a comment on my old skiing with a herniated disc post and thought of you.
Hi, yeah I saw that comment 🙂 My back is actually quite good. The part that was fixed by surgery seems to heal day by day. Unfortunately I have some other issues that remain like before – I suspect some kind of damage to my tail bone. But the “only” trouble is I can’t sit. I can walk, which I do a lot with my funny fur companion, doggy Lukas. I started working after Christmas, though just two half days per week. I look forward to March when I will be allowed some training and physical therapy, until then I’m not allowed to bend or twist or carry heavy stuff.
But all in all I’m greatly happy with the things that are repaired. Gory details on http://grete.duna.no/blog/2011/12/01/sterke-scener-gory-details/
Yikes! See, these details about just how long the recovery is really scare me, and that photo of the surgical wound makes me all queasy.
I got it!!! All I have to do is print out that blog post of yours and your comment here about just how long the recovery is taking and post it somewhere where I can see it every day, several times a day, and maybe that will keep me motivated to stick with my core strengthening. 😉
Thanks for the update, and I sure hop you will be able to to sit soon!
Thanks! It’s not as bad as it seems, I can assure you. They also supply lots of nifty pills whenever needed (I’m almost off those now). Like I said before; I doubt strengthening alone would save my back in the long run, so still I’m happy having done this.
BTW, I have linked to your site from mine, hope that’s OK 🙂
Gretel, thanks for linking to my blog! I’ve added a link to yours in return!
And just as I thought there would never again be colors around here, we got a glimpse of the northern lights – aurora borealis. Do you have them? Not too spectacular tonight, but still something other than the black and grey.
what a beautiful contrast. And what a fun bird. Looking forward to Spring but the Snow does make for some great photo opportunities. The gray not so much, time to get out the photo editing software and play with some color boosting.
