On the Fourth Day of Christmas


This is really the 5th day of Christmas - and the birds arrived yesterday so the song works. I also figured out that with 4 Calling Birds, 3 French Hens, 2 Turtle Doves and a Partridge, that's 10 birds (I know, they increase every day) and we have one more thrown in for good luck.


I have been looking for some kind of art work to help fill in the expanse over the mantle for a while now and this year, in a catalogue I found the birds. I think they are nice. Not as large as I thought and still, they swoop and float and come sailing into the room, drifting on the wind that so often wafts (or roars) over our mountains. I am pleased ~ Merry Christmas to me. :D
