Fur, Feathers and Fins

Today's Sunday Stills challenge was definitely a challenge! But we were told we could pull things out of our archives, so that's exactly what I'm doing!

Fur, of course, is never a problem around here. Since yesterday's word of the day for the photo challenge was hay, I brought a bit inside for the kittens. They they seemed to believe it was catnip.

Feathers flew into my yard while I was attempting, unsuccessfully, some hay shots with the horses. We heard some horrible squawking and turned to find this woodpacker screaming at the hens. Guess he thought they were going to fly up and steal the last apple in the tree from him.

But fins? Well, there are no trout swimming along in our creek this time of year, I'm afraid, so archives it was! You like?

Oh wow! That photo was so cool! I love your interpretation of fins! I was going to try and find a car with fins, but didn't get out in time with our snowfall. I love the woodpecker photo, too. You captured it perfectly!

Great shots! That woodpecker is amazing! I really want to photograph birds but my zoom is not long enough and I can never find the patience to just sit still and wait for them to land near enough to me to get a good shot.

What I like about all of these pictures is that there is one color in each of them that stands out in the perfect location, creating a nice balance.
