snowbird


This photo made me chuckle when I saw it. The first thing that came to my mind was, "no way, this bird is making a SNOW ANGEL!"

Then I saw this photo, which shows the bird taking a well-deserved break after all the huffing and puffing, and admiring the masterpiece it just produced.
And finally, the redwing perches on a nearby limb to check out whether anyone has been paying the least bit of attention. And he makes plans for the next work of art, which won't just be a 2-dimensional sketch on the ground. No, the next job will be a 3-foot SNOWBIRD!
