Sanctuary

This is the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary, near Battle Creek. I've always thought of this view as the entrance to the sanctuary, though technically it's well past the gift/book shop which controls entry to the facility. I can remember that this view was quite different when I was a kid, but don't remember any details; I think this just proves I'm no longer young. Bet I can find a picture in my slides, or my dad's, though.

If you check out the original size, you can see several birds nesting along the path...

===================

I'd post some pictures of the recent snow--today's been absolutely gorgeous, and the whole week's been very pretty--except I've been taken by a really nasty cold and haven't wanted to do much of anything.

The cats and I watched birds all day, but I was too wasted to set up the camera rig.
