I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use - silence, exile, and cunning.

What a pretty bird. Who is this fine feathered fellow?
Hi Robin,
you can always see what kind of bird I post when you look at the label under the comment line.
hope you get plenty of rain!
Love the tail feathers and the shadows across them - a very handsome fellow!
thank you Rhonda!
