I saw your message on The World in Black & White where you had said that you like the music - That isn't my blog, it's Dot's creation! I guess the music you hear is from my blog, Bluff Area Daily! But thank you just the same!

Great sequence, Nancy! This is my favourite among the three. Glad you've captured the bird, it's just the cherry on top of the cake! :-)
