This morning, dappled clouds filled the sky with temperatures in the upper 40s after a couple days of rain. The air was clean and damp, and the light was perfect for photography.
I grabbed the DSLR and tried to take a picture of everything at once. A sure recipe for disaster.
After almost 200 photos, I had a few keepers. It’s better to be lucky than good.
This is Minnie staring at me like a bird on the feeder beside me. Minnie spends hours in this window watching woodpeckers come to the suet.
Minnie is looking through a window that is older than me and possibly my parents. It has rope pulleys, is covered with layers of lead paint, and needs new glazing.
I wouldn’t trade those windows for the world. Even with the needed maintenance.

Love, love, love the kitty looking out the window!!! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Ann!
Looks like my brother’s cat, Oreo, who was living in my childhood home in 1997, when I reglazed many windows that looked just like that, weighted rope pullies and all. It got to be almost fun. Not a good window for heat retention in North Dakota.
I need to do all that work on many of the windows. The secret is to get started. The windows are drafty here as well. I keep the wood stove blazing and let the forces of cold battle the forces of heat.
