The Great Artist

Yesterday we spent some very enjoyable hours with our grand girls at the 
Bloedel Conservatory in Vancouver. 
I am posting some of our photos to give glory to our God who filled our earth with so many reasons to be awed at the beauty created by a Mind so infinitely greater than ours. 
Scroll through these photos as an act of worship to our God of Wonder. 
"Oh that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! 
Let them exalt Him.... !" 
 Psalm 107:31,32a


Hmmmm..... wonder if that would work for my nest ! 


      Worth a try ...









Its hard to see but there is a bird inside the nest trying to pull the plant into his nest !


 Every spring this bird loses his long tail, and then grows it again.

 "Just sayin' ......"

"It was just Christmas, wasn't it ?"



"Green with envy ... nah ... just like the color."

"Thought I'd dress up for the photo-op."




"Ain't I the brightest bird out on a limb !"









"Do you like my new eye liner?|"

Latest designer colors....  wouldn't these colors make the prettiest room decor?

"All these feathers make me itchy ... uggg"


"There .. that feels a little better .... "


"Ok.... I'm all feathered down again !!"
This bird is apparently the 'naughty' boy ....  and he speaks 40 phrases.
I was sorry he refused to converse with us! 


Perhaps the black-headed is the male? the red-headed the female?

 Like my new fascinator?








And a few of the lovely plants creating a Paradise for the birds
