This splendid little creature was caught in the midst of a hearty afternoon preen on a day that was about 80 degrees F - soon enough the little birds that don't migrate will be hunkering down for the cold, gray winter and will be fluffed up like this for warmth and not just style and cleanliness.
"And the seasons, they go 'round and 'round
and the painted ponies go up and down.
We're captive on the carousel of time.
We can't return, we can only look
behind from where we came
and go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game."
current tune-age: Joni Mitchell - Ladies of the Canyon
