...The bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter. Ecclesiastes 10:20
Traveling together
Side by side
In cold weather
Are two birds
Not of same birth
Or feather...
Their message heard,
May peace on earth
With man abide ...
Poetry by me AJP
The Black-capped Chickadee and male Cardinal are two peace loving birds and I was delighted to get a picture of them together even though the snowy weather was not the best for them. It snowed between 6 to 8 inches today.

This is a great photo! Love the colors and the contrast between the two birds. I agree with Rob Roy about if only men so different could get along as well.
