Seeing the colors of the cardinal and bluebirds against a winter day certainly brighten the soul!

Hi Dave,
I agreee, nothing says winter better than a male cardinal in the snow. Great photos! Great looking family too!

Thanks one and all for your compliments on our sons and the artistry of Dave Bertram! I’m told that his wife is the feeder of the birds and, as such, deserves some credit, too! :-)

I agree with you ncmw about the games the other night! A heartbreaking loss for Dook with a second left and a UNC buzzer beater to take down Florida State on the road…doesn’t get much better than that! Both endings sure were exciting and great entertainment during an evening bottle feeding!

Dave’s bird photos are amazing. The bluebird pictures especially — just beautiful.

I’m still breathless after those two games last night. I was afraid Dook was going to pull it off after all. And the ‘Heels were a bit frustrating, to say the least. Who would have thought Tyler would be benched with three fouls so early? When they blew the big lead, I was very afraid. The ACC games are all so much fun this year. Every game is a potential toss-up.

The little guy is really growing, isn’t he? My own son held on to that 2 am feeding as well. But that long stretch afterward made up for it somewhat.

I would agree that the Cardinal picture says winter in a beautiful way.To me something doesn’t look right to have a Bluebird among the snow,not to mention at the seed feeder.I guess that is because we only see them in summer.
Blessings,Ruth

Hi, Dave!

Love those snow pictures!

Tell your big guy that I think he is a very gifted photographer. He sure can get the best smiles from the little guy! So sweet!

About tonight’s game, there is only one thing I can say:

I’m cheering hard for DUKE!!!

I just can’t get over those bluebirds eating seed! That would save me some money for sure – haha – mealworms are expensive!
Yes, nothing says winter like a male Cardinal in the snow! Your friend did good!
That baby is so beautiful and with RED HAIR! How blessed you are to have TWO gorgeous little boys!

More great pictures from your co-worker/friend, Dave. I hope our bluebirds come back to nest here in the spring.

Your sons are so good-looking!!! That baby sure is happy. I’m sure it won’t be long ’til he’ll be watching the birds also.

My UT Vols started out so good–but are really struggling now. Oh Well. Good Luck to your heels!!!
