A gathering of rooks |

Gala Water, Southern Scotland - last winter. |

At dusk the gray foxes stiffen in cold; blackbirds are fixed in white branches. Rivers follow the moon, the long white track of the full moon N Scott Momaday - The Gourd Dancer |

Great collection of photos! Love the pretty blue sky and the moon. The blackbirds have been plentiful around here too. Thank you for linking up with Saturday's Critters. Have a happy weekend!
I love the view of the river. Enjoy your evening, Ruby!
The rooks are splendid, you have really caught the movement of the trees and them moving in the branches. I thought I recognized that river! But such snow! And none this year.
I also like the way rooks hang out together and sometimes take off together in loose rooky clouds

I love all the birds together! The snow makes for great pictures, but I'm glad I don't have to be in it!
Beautiful, Ruby!
Beautiful photographs.

The last photo is stunning. The birds are always with so many nowadays.
Lovely birds, and delightful and bright color in the sky.
Beautiful moon shoot!
We have snow-covered meadows, and cold days!
It's winter!

Beautiful flock of birds and photo of the moon.
Hi,Ruby,
Many beautiful photos! I like the stillness in the blue sky. Those black birds are also waiting for spring to come around!
wonderful to see your photos
i love it when a flock of birds fills a tree!
A great photoseries and poem, thank you.
Love the river shot too!
Visiting from Our Beautiful World
What fabulous photos ... Thanks so much for sharing them with us at Our Beautiful World!
Lovely photo collection...I saw the grackles sitting in a tree that looked so much like the photo you posted. I like the title "Poe Comes to Roost" :)
A lovely series!
How great to have two photographers in your post!

I hope 2014 proves to be a good year for you and yours!
We see also a herd of black bird around here,but there is not white snow. So I have seen a beautiful contrast with black and white for the first time.
Have a good days!
Wonderful shot of group of birds on the bare trees.
Great shots all. The blackbirds are simply astonishing and remind me of the nursery rhyme:
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye.
Four and twenty blackbirds,
Baked in a pie.

Hi,Ruby.
Nice captures. Your photos are very nice. I like your last photo very much. Wishing you a wonderful weekend.
I always love the sight of birds gathered in trees and the noise they make. I'm always pausing to take it all in. Love your photos and post! Thank you for sharing with us at Our Beautiful World!
Absolutely gorgeous, dear Ruby...
Oh the wonders and mystical beauty of Nature!
Enjoy your Sunday.... :)

Die Fotos erinnern mich an Hitchocks Film "Die Vögel". Bei uns vor dem Haus stand ein Birkenbau, auf dem sich die Raben auch immer niederliessen. Leider wurde er abgesägt.

Lovely photos of the stark beauty of winter.
I feel the frigid air in the picture with dots like black birds flocking together on the white naked branches waving in the wind. Harsh but beautiful.
The cold moon is radiating a mysterious power.
Stay warm, Ruby.
You chose nice photos fitting to the poetry. The five iamges inevitably led us to your moon photo and the poetry in the last. Your scheme is so successful, ruby. Stay warm.

La poésie est bien au-delà des mots. Elle perfuse les images, elle les sublime, elle participe à notre bonheur.
