"The birds"

A couple of months ago I took some pictures of the birds in the park, and the other day I decided to go back and pay them another visit. I had honestly thought most of them would have migrated to a warmer climate by now...especially the geese. But no. They were still present in the cold, and some of them seemed very interested in my camera. I met a crow who actually posed for me (!) but surprisingly enough I still managed to take crappy pictures of it. -Although some came out pretty good. Anyways, here are some of the shots;


















This lady almost knocked the camera out of my hands....not exactly a shy bird.

Christmas 2007



Every year Christmas seems to come sooner than the previous year and I always tell myself that "next year I will start buying Christmas presents earlier..." Never happens. I always end up stressing like mad getting those presents in time so that aunts and uncles can get their gifts before they go away to wherever they are spending their Christmas. But, once the day arrives, its all bliss for a couple of days when the stores are closed and you have no excuse not to stay home..doing nothing. And I love it.

This year my parents spoiled me rotten with a digital SLR camera...so hopefully I will be able to update this photoblog more often. And hopefully I can teach myself how to take ok pictures. So anyway...just a few snapshots.



Trygve got a blanket for Christmas...which he refused to leave alone once he discovered it...





Killing time playing Nintendo Wii with the boyfriend (Super Mario Galaxy rocks btw...)



Christmas Day left with a beautiful sunset.
