Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count. Psalm 40:5 (NASB)
When I was in college, many of my cohorts were big into coffee – especially in the mornings. They said they couldn’t get started for the day without one (or several) cups to get things going in their brains. I tried it once, and really liked it. But by the end of that day I realized I could easily get hooked on this stuff, and then I’d have to have it with me wherever I went. I didn’t care much for the thought of that kind of dependency, so I haven’t consumed it since then.
Whilst eating my breakfast cereal recently, I saw the above pictured quail on our old birdfeeder. As the birds are pairing up for nesting, they tend to be a bit more cautious than normal. I was quite fortunate to be able to ease up to the window and capture this photo. I don’t have many close-up pictures of both the male (right) and female together.
I think the pattern of color on these birds is just magnificent. And of course, there are those top feathers crowning their heads. Who needs a strong cup of coffee when you can wake up to something like this from God’s creation?
Many indeed are the wonders which He has done.
Hope you have a great day.
