January Note Card Party.........................


No matter the season, beautiful birds are always in flight 
around the world. I'm showcasing four of my favorites here. 
I think they would make colorful note cards for bird loving friends on any occasion.

Female Cardinal - My Garden, Boxing Day - December 2010

Carolina Wren - My Garden - January 2014

Crested Barbet - Okavango Delta, Botswana, 2012

Lilac-Breasted Roller - Mala Mala, South Africa 2012


Be sure to pop over to Vee's blog, A Haven For Vee 
for this month's Note Card Party - and 
we'd love to have you join in.

  10. How wonderful to capture the bird with the seed in his mouth. Your photos are stunning, Mary. Notecards like these would "fly" off the shelves in a stationery store.

  14. Beautiful photos, Mary.
    I'd buy them in a minute if I saw them for sale. If there's a bird on it, I'm all over it. :)
    The colors and clarity of your birds is amazing. I felt like I could reach out and touch them.

  15. Gorgeous Note Cards - I love all birds.
    I especially love the two cards of birds in your garden - the markings on the little wren are so delicate - what a beauty.
    The cardinal - wow what a photo - perfect timing! I just know you sit on your porch ALL DAY waiting for those bird snapping opportunities! Ha ha!

  23. Just getting here from Vee's party. I love birds in the biggest way so yours are particularly pretty to me. My favorite is the one against the gorgeous blue of the sky. That's frame worthy, IMO. (Actually, they all are.)
