The lemons (grown on our own tree) are my first fruits "from life" in a while. They were a very strong focal point, which needed something else strong to counter it, hence the bird. We'd been watching a nesting blue jay in our bamboo; now, just empty shells in the nest, so we're hoping those little ones flew away safely...


guess who?
