Description
{ Mt 6:26 "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?.}
Our Father God loves and provides for even the Sparrows, how much more does He love and provide for us if we will only love and trust Him.
This is my first capture of an House Wren He was a little shy at first but was soon enjoying the tiny bits of cracked corn on the feeder platform. This is a view on him in the bushes as he is trying to decide if it is safe to go in for lunch. I added a digital painted effect to this version for artistic appeal. Wonderful for any wall in your home or office or perhaps a greeting card. Many more wonderful works can be found in my various galleries, from photographs and photoart to digital creations and abstracts. Thanks for browsing, commenting and most of all for any purchases. Debbie Portwood :D...................................A plain brown bird with an effervescent voice, the House Wren is a common backyard bird over nearly the entire Western Hemisphere. Listen for its rush-and-jumble song in summer and you�ll find this species zipping through shrubs and low tree branches, snatching at insects. House Wrens will gladly use nestboxes, or you may find their twig-filled nests in old cans, boots, or boxes lying around in your garage...............Size & Shape - Small and compact, with a flat head and fairly long, curved beak. Short-winged, often keeping its longish tail either cocked above the line of the body or slightly drooped................Color Pattern - Subdued brown overall with darker barring on the wings and tail. The pale eyebrow that is characteristic of so many wren species is much fainter in House Wrens................Behavior - Bubbly and energetic, just like their songs. Look for House Wrens hopping quickly through tangles and low branches and, in spring and summer, frequently pausing to deliver cheerful trilling songs...............Habitat - In summer, House Wrens are at home in open forests, forest edges, and areas with scattered grass and trees. Backyards, farmyards, and city parks are perfect for them. In winter they become more secretive, preferring brushy tangles, thickets, and hedgerows.

My dear Debbie, a visit to your religious themed works gallery is like stepping into "church" or entering into our secret "prayer closet" and communing with God! This is so well done...love the capture of this House Wren and the processing, the verse of scripture chosen to go with it and the border, and everything about it! Love, love, love it! Fave! L/F/FB!
