Lovely capture against the snow...birds are cautious around our house because of Maggie...she hasn't as far as we know actually caught a bird yet, but they don't know that !

God has such a wonderful way of compensating brightness in winter, the yellow of this beauty is a wonderful reminder of bright summer colours.
And yes, i think me too like the second one a wee bit more:)
