Sanctuary

Sanctuary Sign, Angel Oak, John's Island, SC  © Doug Hickok


We end this yellow week with wild birds gathering on a sign. After the wild week we've had, it's nice to have the sanctuary of the weekend ahead of us... maybe we need a "Hickok Sanctuary" sign in front of our home.

    Preach it brother--I am so desperately needing this weekend. Great, quirky shot to kick it off my friend.

    I could do with a litle sanctuary this weekend too. Or maybe just a little sanity would do. Charming sign.

    I don't recognise these American birds.

    Clockwise from top: Blackbird?, robin?, bluetit?, crossbill?

    I also believe this is a road sign. It looks old but still functioning. Great ending of the week, Doug!
