:) How on earth could I view this image and read the title without cracking a smile. Absolutely a superb capture that has me pressing the favorites button with a grin from ear to ear. Wonderful post.
No way I was going to be the first not to fave. Where are their little briefcases? Looks like they're making sure they're dressed for the occasion. Just a good way to start of a Monday. Thanks Sabine.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

"I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled [poets] to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean."
--Socrates (in "Apology")
I never know where to file these..birds? Animals? I usually end up with them in animals because they have such great personalities...wonderful vision of them here, Sabine.
"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
Gorgeous shot of these majestic animals! Beautiful colors and good clarity. I too wonder where they left their briefcases... for they are surely dressed for the big meeting. ;-)
