When the bird seed disappears, the birds disappear and must fend for themselves during the winter months. This is a new version of an image taken in November during a sunny day. I felt then that the brightness and predominant vivid blues created a disconnect between the image + title + story and the mood I was trying to set. Today's version of the pic creates the connect I wanted.
