Five On The Wire – #6

.

My last “Five On The Wire” post series was in October.  I’ve had three ready for this post since October, just waiting for two more to make “the five”.  The first week of January, I scored the fourth, and last week I scored the fifth.

Here you go!

The next photo was my fifth bird to complete this post.  It was an awesome sighting and bonus for me.  I’ve only seen them a few times ever.  I most definitely turned the car around for this one, while I kept saying, “please don’t fly, please don’t fly….”  🙂

“So many birds sitting around, on a dead wire, a bare branch, a cold ground, a drifting seashore; never realizing the glory in their wings and where it can take them, nor the envy as we look on them.”   — Anthony Liccione
