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.
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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Watching this bee jump from flower to flower it was determined to find just what exactly suited its taste. When the seasons pass so quickly this is one small thing that I will miss. “Determination” drives this bee to exactly what it wants, as will my determination keep me patient to repeat this very photo-op next Summer. Thanks for viewing my work. Be grateful and kind.

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.
As I was on my way to work, a crow kept on attacking me for no apparent reason at all.
They say that if this happens, a crow’s nest is most probably near by. Well, that’s the determination to protect I saw that day even though I’m not doing anything wrong.
This piece is the first one I draw in Washington and it is based on Mr. Lorcan Keating’s photography as I obviously cannot sketch while I’m being attacked ;)

Oggi sono 10 anni da quando Molly arrivò così sul nostro terrazzo, sporca, magra e malaticcia ma già dolcissima, provata da un inverno passato a badare ai cuccioli che poco dopo la raggiunsero. Decise che eravamo le persone giuste e ci adottò. Presidiò la porta per più di due mesi, vanificò i tre tentativi di riportarla, dopo averla curata, alla sua cascina a 1km e mezzo di bosco da noi e infine, nuovamente incinta, vinse lei. Io la ringrazio per la sua determinazione. Gli animali sanno cose che a noi subito sfuggono, Molly sapeva che per entrambi sarebbe stato meraviglioso diventare amici.
ENG: Today it is 10 years since Molly arrived on our terrace, dirty, thin and sickly but already very sweet, tried by a winter spent looking after the puppies that shortly after reached her. He decided we were the right people and adopted us. She guarded the door for more than two months, thwarted the three attempts to bring her, after having treated her, to her farmhouse 1 and a half km from us and finally, pregnant again, she won. I thank Molly for her determination. Animals know things that we don't understand right away, Molly knew it would be wonderful for both of us to become friends.

I saw this little snail on my garden table heading in its own pace straight to the potted sunflower, not even hesitating when I came pretty close with my camera. That is determination!
I then moved the snail to another safe, green area.
Ich sah diese kleine Schnecke auf meinem Gartentisch, wie sie in ihrem eigenen Tempo auf die Sonnenblume Pflanze zueilte. Sie ließ sich nicht einmal durch die nahe Kamera stören. Das ist Zielstrebigkeit!
Ich habe die Schecke dann in eine sichere grüne Ecke umgesiedelt.
