I'm fascinated by bird tongues. There are worse things, right?! :oops:
I am strong, because I've been weak.
I am fearless, because I've been afraid.
I am wise, because I've been foolish.

We had a great time, and it was the first time I had birds land in my hand rather than just holding the camera the whole time.
Still a really cold 2nd trip for me this season, can't wait to go back in shorts and sandals!
