Camera Critters #7:

"It was spring without voices. On the mornings that had once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays, and wrens... there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh." Rachel Carson 1962 "Silent Spring"

Thanks in large part to Carson's writings and her book, once again the morning chorus sings.

What wonderful ‘captures’ this morning!!! I definitely need a better camera. I could use some ‘gopher’ advice if you (or others) have any … but the main event in my Camera Critters this week (at Small Reflections) is Molly meeting a ‘look-alike’ last weekend … named Molly!
Hugs and blessings,
