I'm away from my computer for a few days, So I can only share already posted images.

They pull out their own feathers to make a nest. I was told that the feathers grow back within 14 weeks.

Beautiful pictures, as usual. :) Dawn, those trees look like they are wearing hairnets! So perfectly shaped. The Cliffs of Moher, Ireland

The gardens have been transformed into a winter wonderland - beautiful! Annie, the only thing better than chocolate would be gold covered chocolate - almost too pretty to eat! Igmd, I love how the birds tails can be seen poking out from under the snow covered shelter of the feeders. I'm sure the birds appreciate it! Looks inviting, Jim. Street food is the best and I think one of the best ways to experience local food as well. It hasn't been all prettied up for the tourists and is the real deal.
