Description All Glory Goes to God for he nurses to me when I am sick, he comforts me when I am sad, and he has lead me away from Suicide many times in my life. He has gave me purpose and it is that purpose that is the reason why I am here today.

This is a bit of a double decker Sandwich of a Dedication. This is both a dedication to a cause and a birthday dedication. This is first a Birthday dedication for the amazing JocelyneR and a dedication to a cause I am sure is close to her. That cause being the removing of stigma that surrounds Black Cats. Many people hate black cats simply because they are black. That is wrong. All animals are God's creatures and he loves them all. Just because some superstition says black cats are bad luck doesn't make it true. How many of us have stepped on a crack even without knowing it and yet our mothers backs are not broken. There is many loving black cats that are euthanized each year because of the color of their fur. Black Cats are Beautiful.



This is a dark-eyed Junco.

Taken October 2015 in Chippewa County, Wisconsin with my Canon Powershot SX520

Thank you in advance for all the comments, watches, and favorites. I wish I had the time to thank each and every one of you but the only way I have time to make art and show it is to put the thank yous in the description. I instead find it better suited to try and have conversations with as many of you as I possibly can. If you're a watcher feel free to send me a note with some suggestions for future features. You can send me a few of yours, a few of your friends, or a few of underappreciated artists. I really love to find new underappreciated artists.

Critique's are encouraged

How strange! This is the second time this week that I've seen a pic of a Junco like this one!
I had never seen one in my life before (to my knowledge, that is) and this week I see two!!
(One taken by my cousin here in Oklahoma.) It's a very pretty bird!!

They aren't super common unless you get the right feed. They are also more common as it gets closer to winter. I have a few photos of them in my gallery. They prefer to live and eat on the ground. They can fly but they prefer to hop.   It's only like 9 inches up a bush in this photo.

You are spoiling me, Casey, as I said, you are so nice to me, all the time! 
First of all, thank you so much, once again for this beautiful dedication for my birthday, I greatly appreciate it! 

This is another awesome picture, a close-up of a Dark-eyed Junco, and we know how hard it is to take a sharp photo of these birds! 

Secondly, thank you so  much for featuring my black cats and your crusade to made them loved. They are sweet and loving animals, maybe sweeter than the other cats. I never had any problems with them, on the contrary! It is touching me very much!
I don't know why so many people don't like them or are afraid to own them. Yes, because of a non-sense superstition!  Thank you so very much for that, Casey!

My pleasure Jocelyne. Yeah there texture is very hard to capture. Luckily when I mixed cardinal blend with Kaytee brand Critter blend they came. I need to get out and get photos again. If you can find a dealer of Kaytee and can get the critter blend you so should. I mean within hours new species were showing up. My mom when she comes home at night is seeing all sorts of animals we haven't seen this year but saw last year. Animals such as deer and rabbits at night. Cardinals love it, blue jays love it. Everything from birds to big mammals, to small mammals are showing up now. You already have a huge diversity but I haven't seen you post a photo of an animal that wouldn't love it. I think if it works as well for you as for me, then you'd not only see more of the same species but other species as well. It's got whole peanuts in it so it's meant for on the ground or on trays, but if you remove the whole peanuts and put them with a bit on the ground or post, the rest will work in a tube feeder. I am trying that now as I would love to get cardinals on the tube feeders.

Agreed.  As long as the color black isn't being used on demonic iconography, it's a beautiful color.

Yep, and these black cats of hers all were lovely cats. Due to so many not wanting black cats, you can by going to animal shelters and getting a black cat get to choose from the most loving cats available there. Since the most loving go first of every color, but blacks sit longer, it means odds are the most loving cat there is going to be a black cat.
