After I mentioned to a friend that the birds were singing outside, he said he thought all birds went south for the winter. I said, "This IS the South" and emailed this photo that I took from my window of a cardinal in the Harry Lauder's Walking Stick in the back yard. He asked how he could be sure it wasn't photoshopped and I told him I don't have those sorts of photoshop skills.
A few minutes later he emailed me this:
good photoshop work. (or a flock of cardinals happened by his place - what a coincidence)
ReplyDeleteThe bigger coincidence would be if he happened to have an identical shrub in his backyard.
Deleteif i look outside and see that many cardinals i might get a little scared...
ReplyDeletethat many cardinals together means they are electing a new pope right? smiles.
I guess I'd watch to see if the smoke went up!
DeleteThat's funny!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteLOL. But even Photoshop has to start from something.
ReplyDeleteCome to think of it, my Jack and Jill post today is just rife with Photoshopping.
You could photoshop in a bird from another photo, though, right?
DeleteBut what's the fun in that?
DeleteHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeleteOMG...this CRACKED ME UP! HILARIOUS!
And yes, I love someone who can make me laugh. It's the BEST!

He does. :)
DeleteI have to learn to Photoshop. I like birds and Cardinals are special.
ReplyDeleteI do, too, but not enough to add them into my photos!
DeleteHe obviously had the skill to Photoshop :) However, I love your shot of one single bird, very dramatic looking! We don't have cardinals here, beautiful birds!
ReplyDeletebetty
I love them - so striking in the winter time.
DeleteThat was funny!
ReplyDeleteYour cardinal birds are really exotic looking. We don't have them here.

That's funny to hear - they are so common place here.
DeleteI actually hear more birds singing in the winter, probably because of the stillness and less leaves to absorb their sound.
ReplyDeleteSeems ike Spring is when I notice them really going crazy.
DeleteHe he! Photoshop is creating a whole parallel universe of faked people and objects. Can we believe any image at all that's in the public domain?
ReplyDeleteI love all those Photoshop disasters of people with missing ears, extra hands and assorted screw-ups.
I've become pretty skeptical. People have really become too good to be true.
DeleteI've seen photoshopped pictures before, but your picture made me think of the fish I sometimes photographed....instead of one measly fish on the bank, there can be countless ones. Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe make the fish a lot bigger in the photo.
DeleteI love your shot, quite frameable. :)

DeleteLOL. I love this. I appreciate someone who can make me laugh too!
ReplyDeleteHi, and welcome.
DeleteI love having friends who are entertaining.
:))) it's not only the South but it's seems also that it is reproduction time:)
ReplyDeleteGuess they are looking for love.
DeleteRemind me to be nice to your friends…
ReplyDeleteLaughter is a much needed commodity; round here it’s in short supply at the moment.
ReplyDeleteNice friend, your friend.
Yes, he's a good guy.
DeleteThat's why I love MWM so much - he makes me laugh. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's a really good trait.
DeleteMade me laugh too:) A great friend!
