Hi Everybody!
In Germany we celebrate Christmas on the 24th, and I know many other places celebrate on the 25th, so whenever you are celebrating, may you have a happy, peaceful and safe celebration.
And the birds join with me in wishing you a happy Christmas:
Have a happy time, stay safe,
take care!
I will be back on Saturday with the next post!
This is soooo cute! especially the seagulls ~ We have a big dinner on the 24th but open our presents on the 25th ~ Blessings & love sent your way!

ReplyDeleteThanks Erika. The main celebration and Gift giving is on Christmas Eve, on the other days are usually visits to friends and family, but this year not! Enjoy your celebration!

DeleteYour holiday blessings and journal pages are great. But I think my favorite today are all the lovely birds with their Christmas hats on. Hope your 24th is the best ever. Have a safe, healthy, and joyous Christmas, no matter which day you celebrate it, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elizabeth, the birds here in Kaiserswerth love celebrating! Have a wonderful day!
DeleteWishing you are safe and Happy Christmas. Hugs Anesha
ReplyDeleteThanks Anesha, merry Christmas to you and yours!
DeleteGood morning Valerie: In all my years of observing the moult of birds and taking careful notes about missing primaries, and worn scapulars etc I have never observed this odd growth of plumage on the heads of various species, and universally red, I might add. It's a very good thing that I recently had cataract surgery on both eyes for there is obviously much that I have been missing, and now will be able to see. Merry Christmas. Happy New Year. Good health. Great happiness. Much coffee. Functional fingers. Hugs and kisses from David and Miriam.
ReplyDeleteHi David, you should know by now that Balconia has exceptional bird varieties, largely unknown to those living elsewhere! Merry Christmas to you and Miriam. Stay safe and happy and thanks for always making me smile! Hugs to you both!
DeleteNadolig Llawen!
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb, the same to you! Have a wonderful time!
