Birdsong

This is a picture I took while in Abilene for Christmas vacation in 2007. I went to Nelson Park to pay tribute to my beloved dog, Marley, who died there a few months before. I was lucky enough to get a shot of this bird in flight. I edited the photo using Picnik and added the quote (an excerpt from a Mary Oliver poem). The words describe how I feel about the endless creativity found in Nature and the way in which it speaks to my spirit and invites it to create something in return.
