So gentle Jone. Being west coast, I had never heard of the spotted towhee so I immediately went to Google. What a sweet looking little bird.
Being in the UK, I'd never heard of the spotted towhee either and will look up immediately! Lovely haiku and photo - so green!
I am trying to photograph this sweet birds and will upload if I am successful. The current photo is my backyard retreat.
A retreat indeed! It looks so inviting! It's amazing how birds can make shelters out of just about anything!
Hi Jone! You forgot I'm a huge Shirley Temple fan ;) Yes, we were married on the 14th at sunrise on a beach on Kauai, 3yrs ago.
Lovely haiku! Can't wait to see your shots of the Towhee. I better get working on mine!

Such a lovely haiku and photo - I hadn't heard of the Spotted Towhee, but my husband, the Brit birder had!
I always see towhees under some sort of cover. Our's (Maine) are the eastern, like yours, just without spots. Your retreat is nice.
A lovely descriptive haiku of this wonderful, bird shelter :)
your ku is like some secret snapshot...nice work!
I can hear them! Very nice haiku. Thank you.
heh... when i look at that picture, i want to reach out and push the trees aside, i can't help but feel there's something hidden behind them.
Hi Jone, thanks for letting me know you'd added the photo of the towhee - what a lovely bird!
