Backyard Birding

I have always loved watching birds and whenever I am outside I am usually looking about for them. I also enjoy watching flying insects such as butterfly's, dragonfly's and bee's as well as bats. They are amazingly and wonderfully created and I love that the creation of birds was specifically commented on in Genesis chapter 1 versus 20-25.

"And God said, "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth." And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day."

I have been blessed to be able to spend quite a bit time outdoors this Spring and I have really enjoyed taking a few pictures of.....you guessed it.....birds.
