Thanks, Kathryn. Your gallery would make Monet envious! "Angel Alone" is profound.Joyce ONeil June 27, 2005
Looks like an intense conversation going on between them! Great photo! #1526062Justin Keck June 27, 2005
Excellent shot Ken! Great color and sharpness. #1526078Ken Grooms June 27, 2005
Thanks, Joyce. They feed each other everyday outside my kitchen window - breakfast at 7am, dinner at 7pm. I think she's the boss, naturally!"Love for Pawpa" is Norman Rockwell, both in the classic faces and in the composition and framing!

Thanks, Cody. Your car pictures belong in a magazine or calendar - seriously!Ken Grooms June 29, 2005
Thanks, Marsha. Yes, I'm lucky to have a nice view. My backyard is a veritable bird santuary! Of course, a little bird seed doesn't hurt either.You have an impressive (and large!) gallery. I'm only half way through and it is something - really varied, interesting, and high quality.
Thanks again.

Great capture. The colors are so beautiful. Did you put seed out there to catch them???? #1599825Goshka G. July 16, 2005
What a beautiful catch, Ken!! #1600175Ken Grooms July 16, 2005
Thanks, ladies! And yes, Mary, I put A LOT OF SEED (a 20 lb bag!) to get these birds exactly where I wanted them - about 7 feet outside my basement window! But I love to see and hear the many different kinds of birds the seed brings, so the $5 bag was a good investment - even without the photos it helped to produce. #1601599Derrald R.
