Just One Of God's Little Blessings!


I had an amazing gift this afternoon! It started when I kept hearing a bird tweet-tweeting very loudly and sounded to be in distress, so I looked out my front door, and saw this little darling!






It's a baby cardinal, and he was trying his best to get his daddy to give him something to eat! Daddy was obliging, sitting on the feeder, eating a while, then going back down to feed his little one.





I know these aren't the clearest pictures, but considering I was taking them behind a curtained window with just the lens of my camera sticking out, up against the glass, then cropped and zoomed quite a bit, they are pretty good!





Daddy about to feed baby; baby bowing so daddy can get down to him.








"More, daddy, more!"





"Okay, baby, here's some more!"





I love this picture! There is almost a sense of reverence and respect between the father and child. I have enjoyed watching them this afternoon so very much. There was another baby, but I only saw them together once, and couldn't get a picture.


Isn't it amazing when we slow down a minute and watch these little gifts God sends us from time to time?!?
