Breadcrumbs for Robin

Today I cut some bread for the birds.
A threw it out on the ice.
Robin came to have a look and some crumbs.

robin on ice

Its still freezing.
Robin came along to have some ice water.
He even dares to walk on the ice...

diamonds

Small twinkling diamonds in the frozen grass, when the sun catches the frosted icicles.

Hairy frost

Beautiful hairy frost on the roof of the feeding house for the birds.
Only one night below zero created a kind of 'warm' hairy furcoat on the house.

Robin

Everyday robin comes to pick some grains.
Actually I saw 2 robins, but mostly you only see only one of them.
Very rarely I see them together
and then it is almost impossible to capture both.

First snowdrops

The first snowdrops dared to come out, announcing early spring.

weird creature

Looking out of my window, I see a weird creature trying to eat from some branches.
a while ago it had two eyes, but he lost one because of the stormy winds.

X-mas celebration

Christmas celebration,
The King of all Kings has been borne about 2018 years ago!

Robin

About a week ago, when it was freezing and cold.

frozen leaves

Some more floating frozen leaves in the pond.

snow feather

 Overnight a white thin layer of snow lay everywhere.
I love the sight of fresh fallen snow.

I wondered how the yesterdays fluffy feather was doing.
It was now sunk a bit into the ice and looked like frozen all over.

Feather

While sitting before my window with my coffee,
suddenly a beautiful white feather came floating through the air
and landed on the ice of my pond.
Such a beautiful sight!

Frost patterns

The pond has gotten beautiful patterns in the ice overnight.

Eurasian Sparrow hawk

While visiting a friend, and having tea.
We noticed a Sparrow hawk (Sperwer) chasing the sparrows.
In no time he catched one.
He did not mind us watching behind the window.
He was too much focussed on his prey.
He made a mess of the feathers and soon he had his happy meal.

Never had seen a Sparrow hawk so close
I only had my phone and not my other camera.

Carrierdoves

The carrier doves are flying in circles and eights around my house.

It looks to me they are flying around with wild enthusiasm and joy!
