Birds on a Wire
The birds are enjoying a relatively sunny day. But it is deceptively cold. Snow is a possibility in a few days.

Ni Wewe Bwana (It is You Lord)
This is a lovely gospel song sung in Swahili and has special meaning for me. It is special because on my first trip to Kenya a group of orphans encircled me and sang this lovely song. It really touched me. No one translated the song for me at that time. Though I could not speak Swahili I knew it was a worship song unto God. I tried to track the song down for a long time. Every time I would ask a Kenyan friend, no one would know which song I was trying to recollect. I only knew the words "Ni wewe bwana" and decided to search on YouTube when I couldn't get any of my friends to help me find the song. Guess what, I found it! (Update: It has already been some years since I found it and had a Tanzanian friend translate it for me.) The version I'm sharing is the same song but this one on the video is sung to a slightly faster beat. It is sung by well known (now deceased) Tanzanian Gospel singer, Fanuel Sedekia. This song gives me joy and lifts me u
Nice photo!
ReplyDeletelovely! looks like a bird get-together.
ReplyDeleteThe lines are looking busy! :)
ReplyDeleteFunny...we've been hearing lots of birds outside...even in all the snow and cold...a sure sign that spring is on the way...
ReplyDelete~Have a lovely day!
We have a lot of sights like this around here. It is neat how all the birds face one way.
ReplyDeleteHi Joyful, Isn't bird behavior interesting? I often wonder what makes them all stop and sit together like this. Then, usually, when one takes off, they all go. This is a nice capture. It is quite cold down here just south of you. Below freezing for sure. Yesterday there were pictures of ice floating in the Puyallup River. We don't see that very often! Have a great day. John
ReplyDeleteThe blue sky makes it a happier picture. These overcast days are so dreary.
ReplyDeleteCute shot!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice resting spot for the birds. Lovely sky shot! Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteThey look like they're expecting, and waiting for, something exciting to happen - surely not a great pile of snow! I do hope you don't get 'snowed in' Joyful! Keep warm and take care, hugs, Joy x

That sunshine does make it look enticing to be outside!
ReplyDeleteI've noticed, on my firsy winter of extreme cold, thay birds aren't nearly so active as when the weather is warmer or the ground is snow and ice free. A first for me.
