Lazy

19 Jan

I’ve got too much going on to be lazy, but that doesn’t mean I don’t feel like it.  “The Lazy Song” by Bruno Mars was the Song-ography song this week.  I might not have been horribly lazy with new classes to teach and getting ready for the boy to move home, but I did steal a little time to take some pictures.  That’s my perfect lazy day.

It was the perfect weather day of the winter so far!  Hope you all have a great week!

      Thanks, Theresa! It was a perfect day to be out enjoying the birds and trees.

    I love those sunset photos and the shot of the bird in flight!

    • tayetofthegoats January 19, 2014 at 7:24 pm #

      Elaborating, the sparrow, not the turkey vulture (?). But those are good shots, too!

      • Teresa January 19, 2014 at 7:30 pm #

        I believe they are starlings and a lone hawk. 🙂

      • Teresa January 19, 2014 at 7:30 pm #

        Strangely, I knew what you meant without the elaboration. 🙂

    • Teresa January 19, 2014 at 7:30 pm #

      There were so many sparrows enjoying the nice weather I couldn’t help but catch them in flight.

    The bird shots are, indeed, relaxing. I love the pinecone, though.

    • Teresa January 19, 2014 at 7:31 pm #

      Thanks. It’s nice to see the pinecone. The snow has really diminished with the warm weather today.

    You make winter look so beautiful! I love the bare tree against that gorgeous blue sky.

    • Teresa January 19, 2014 at 8:14 pm #

      We were unseasonably warm today. It was close to 50*F. So beautiful!

    • Teresa January 19, 2014 at 8:14 pm #

      Thanks, Anne. It was such a great day, and it fell on the weekend! Hope you have a great week, too.

    You were long overdue for a perfect weather winter day! Glad you got to enjoy it!

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 6:51 am #

      Thanks. It was nice. Of course we’re going to have single digit highs two days this week. 😦

      It was picture perfect!

  10. Gunilla January 20, 2014 at 12:00 am #

    There’s nothing better than being out with the camera enjoying a beautiful day. I love the cone and the sky in the last shot.

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 6:52 am #

      It was one of those sunsets that just kept getting more and more beautiful!

  11. Raine January 20, 2014 at 12:11 am #

    The birds perched in rows – so many! The sky was lovely to end a wonderful day.

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 6:52 am #

      They were happy to have a nice day to sit outside too!

  12. Stewart Monckton January 20, 2014 at 1:44 am #

    Nice set of pictures – if spending time taking pictures makes you lazy, I must be a real couch potato!!

    Cheers – Stewart M – Melbourne

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 6:53 am #

      Well, that’s my version of lazy (most days). 🙂

  13. margaret January 20, 2014 at 2:10 am #

    Hi Theresa I was just about to write what Stewart said, I also must be a couch potato!! Great set of shots. Love the sky , cone and Sparrow shots.

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 6:53 am #

      If the bird feeder is right outside the window, it’s possible to take a lot of shots from the couch!

  14. Anni @ I'd Rather B Birdin' January 20, 2014 at 10:00 am #

    Super excellent Teresa!! I enjoyed ’em all!!! Lovely birds, beautiful sun/sky photos, even the pine cone image was so well composed!!!

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 11:42 am #

      Thanks, Anni. It was a perfect day out there!

    Wonderful collection of images! I love the sparrow tree and the lovely sky shots. Have a happy week!

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 11:45 am #

      The sparrows were happy to be outside instead of huddled in the building.

    What a beautiful sunset and I love the branches ‘decorated’ with all the birds! 🙂

    • Teresa January 20, 2014 at 5:43 pm #

      They’ve been hiding in the barn, but the nice weather brought them outside too.
