We have been flooded with rain in much of our parts of the world. What strange weather we have had. GRAY for a couple of weeks, high temperatures in the upper 50's to 70 and raining. So much that I was walking a path Sunday and I slid in the mud and have been sore all week. Many have lost their homes and some their lives...sad!

I especially enjoyed your last entry and marveled at how many bird species you have encountered this past year. Amazing.<br /><br />This post was full of birding gems. That's a huge number of Fieldfare! We continue to wish all the best to those adversely affected by flooding. As Eileen pointed out, that dark cloud appears to have a silver lining for the waterfowl. Each of your images was marvelous! <br /><br />We wish you a Happy New Year filled with birds and peace.Wally Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121368850135565674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-46480582982016162072015-12-28T13:03:42.629+00:002015-12-28T13:03:42.629+00:00Hello Phil, I hope these flood waters have receedi...Hello Phil, I hope these flood waters have receeding. But, then the flood water maybe saving some of your ducks from being slaughtered. Your images and birds are beautiful. The weather everywhere seems to be crazy lately. We had spring like temps the past week, it is getting colder though.<br />Happy Birding! I wish you all the best in 2016, Happy New Year!<br /><br />Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!eileeninmdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070309645796725309noreply@blogger.com
