This downy woodpecker was waiting to fly up to the suet feeder during a snow squall one winter. It was grasping a lilac branch outside one of my windows. This was taken in Northeastern PA.

Thanks everyone for your views, comments, awards, invites and faves.

It's not the SIZE of the dog in the fight, but the size of the FIGHT in the dog

 

I rise and fall, yet through it all

This much remains

I want one moment in time

When I'm more than I thought I could be

When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away

And the answers are all up to me

Even when it snows hard outside and I put plenty of food out for the squirrels there is always one that has to raid the bird feeders.

Genius And Power

~Orison Swett Marden~

 

There is genius and power in persistence.

It conquers all opposers;

It gives confidence;

It annihilates obstacles.

Everybody believes in the determined man.

People know that when he undertakes a thing,

The battle is half won,

For his rule is to accomplish ...

whatever he sets out to do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At a Culzean Country Park, today. This wee guy kept trying to get piece of coconut from a shell, hanging on a tree. He was very wary of me, but was obviously quite hungry. He kept appearing, then flying off, before getting something to eat. Here, he eventually grabbed a piece and I was lucky enough to snap him before he swooped away, again.

They say that Orange combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow. It is associated with joy, sunshine, and the tropics. Orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation.

If true or not it doesn't matter because all of this is what I wish to you, dear Flickr friends, in the beginning of one more week, a very special week in some parts of the world ;)

I really do believe that most anything can be sorted out with a little determination... and a lot of coffee.

Hi There!

 

This chap was determined to get a place on the suet feeder which was filled with several other Yellow-rumped (Myrtle) Warblers. This was taken at my friend's house. She tells me that she can barely keep the suet feeder filled. I'll be heading back with the camera today or tomorrow to see what excitement is forthcoming!

Thank you all for stopping by and for your comments. I do love hearing from you! Have a terrific day and week ahead!

Keep delivering kindness and compassion, my friends.

 

And keep shining so bright!

These towers stand 250 to 300 feet above the desert floor. They are incredible all on their own. Even more so with a star filled sky.

Art lifts our spirits and reaches our soul. Artists define the character of our communities. Social distancing may keep us away from one another this holiday season, but we can still stay close. Shop art and consider a handcrafted, personal gift for your loved ones this #ArtistsSunday Nov 29, the Sunday after Thanksgiving.

Determination is powerful

Being at the top of Pico do Escalavrado is a unique experience. The peak is 1,420 meters / 4,659 feet above sea level and offers a breathtaking view of the city of Rio de Janeiro and Guanabara Bay. The trail to the summit is steep and challenging, but the effort was worth it for the sense of achievement when I reached the top.

 

Here are some of the meanings of being on the summit of Pico do Escalavrado:

 

Achievement: The ascent to the peak is a personal achievement. It is a challenge that requires physical strength, endurance and determination. Upon reaching the top, I felt a sense of pride and accomplishment.

 

Connection: The peak of Escalavrado is a place of connection with nature. As I looked out over the stunning landscape, I felt small and insignificant, but also part of something bigger. I felt a sense of peace and serenity.

 

Inspiration: The peak of Escalavrado is a place of inspiration. Looking at the city of Rio de Janeiro, I felt inspired to reach my goals. I know anything is possible if I try hard enough.

 

Gratitude: Escalavrado peak is a place of gratitude. As I looked out over the landscape, I felt grateful for the beauty of the world around me. I also felt grateful for the people in my life.

  

If you are looking for a unique and challenging experience, I recommend the climb to Pico do Escalavrado. It's an experience you'll never forget.

The fish put up quite a fight but this osprey was not taking 'no' for an answer.

This day started beautiful but turned quickly as things can do in the desert. I had the drone up circling the towers and felt a small smack on my forehead. No it wasn't Bea, it was hail. I quickly got the drone in luckily had this shot already taken. We went back with our tails between our legs. Thanks for looking at my ridiculous attempts at professional photos!! Kris..

Busy as a Bee for sure. It may just start with determination to work hard for yourself and others who may also depend upon you. Having pride in what we do and how we perform our duties can be a reflection on how we see ourselves and how we learned some of life’s more important lessons. Always doing our best in whatever it is we do is like putting our personal signature on our accomplishments. Do your best, stand tall and be proud. Thanks for viewing my work. Stay safe and stay determined.

Got this.

Last blooming sunflower here at home. The sweltering temps wilted the petals and they never filled out completely, but it rose to the occasion. This sunnie is a mammoth variety and it is 7 ft. tall.
