a tweet little give-away

It's Mosaic Monday at Mary's & Blue Monday at Sally's.
Thank you both for hosting!

I love when the little birds come to visit our feeders!
It's tricky to get them to pose, though.


These two little silvery birds are posing just right,
don't you agree?


They would look absolutely adorable on your winter windowsill
and I'm sending them to one lucky winner.
  • Please leave a comment if you would like a chance.
  • Leave a second comment if you're a follower & you'll get a second entry.
  • Post my give-away on your blog, then comment back for a third entry.
Winner will be drawn on Friday 2/19.
Good luck and have a wonderful week!

    Hi!
    Love your Mosaic of Birds. They don't really want to sit still for me. I've tried but don't have a really good camera for close ups. Would love to be in your drawing for the snow birds. They are beautiful! I am a follower, have put your birds with a link back to you in my sidebar. Have a great day!
