Glass eyes and porcelain skin

Look to her and think of sin

Her touch is like a hazy dream

Her mind is in a world unseen...

With the feathers you are found, you can build yourself something beautiful. I was lucky to get some pale lens flares too.

Listen: like a feather - Nikka Costa

 

I'm coming out of my wishing well where only echoes lonely hear my prayers

I'm coming around to bend cause my resistance been to persistent

I've come to far to force it so I'll watch it slide and land

I could come on strong and willful but

I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my hand

 

and when I set it free like a feather it will be

and when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be, it will be, it will be, yeah

 

I'm taking a breather baby from sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall

I'm taking up giving in so here's the wheel, I'm putting my feet up

take another look at me baby today I'm taking on catastrophe

I'd rather take it easy then try to force what's on its way to me

 

and when I set it free like a feather it will be

and when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be, it will be, it will be, yeah yeah

 

we're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far

the lights behind that we free will blind other stars

but the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far

so get ready to be

who you are

 

Thanks Tomis :-)

a little feather I found yesterday. For 'Smile on Saturday', the theme is "Feathers".

Had another great day of shooting the swallows at the lake - due to heavy rain and wind. Got several passes of this tree swallow - or I _think_ it was the same one, based on the state of the feathers in the wings and tail. it definitely seemed undeterred by the damage!

Early morning dew drops on a Collared Dove feather, magnifying those intricate details quite nicely too!

A grey and a white feather from my big bag of feathers, some in better condition than others .....

The grey one is 3" long and I cropped the image accordingly

Being on vacation I had to use one of my parents feathers that they have kept. This one was a feather from a hawk that visits them often.

Pied Shags at Zealandia Ecosanctuary, Wellington New Zealand (named Karuhiruhi in New Zealand or otherwise known as the Pied Cormorant - Phalacrocorax).

 

Shags have evolved from a family of birds who are considered primitive because they do not produce feather oils like ducks and other water fowl. They must dry their feathers periodically in order to fly or even remain buoyant, so they remain perched for significant periods of time with wings outstretched.

This is a guinea fowl feather lying down on the ground.

This little white feather, about 20 mm across, was sitting on top of a coleus leaf in the garden...

Some of us may get sauce on our face while eating spaghetti just like this snowy owl has a feather on its beak while eating a shore bird.
