Little Birdy
Holy shit. I finally went to see Pan's Labyrinth today. What a great movie. It's like a fairy tale for adults, with all of the darkness and weirdness that that implies. If it wasn't a foreign film there is no doubt that it would be a deserving Best Picture nominee and winner. This is the kind of movie that restores my faith in what movies are capable of being. Go see it.
Yesterday I went out looking for the bluebirds that I saw a few weeks ago, this time armed with my telephoto lens. Unfortunately I didn't see the bluebirds, but I sure saw some red birds.
I like how cardinals stand out in the winter time, even when far away.
Well, I know what a cardinal sounds like now. Now I just need to figure out what a bluebird sounds like.
Cardinals are actually more skittish than I expected. They wouldn't let me get too close.

I love cardinals. I really want to see Pan. I loved the Devils Backbone. Is there a way to click around on metacritic? That's the only thing I don't like on there - I couldn't click to see what else he had directed, and I knew I recognized the name. Hellboy, not so much. Actually, I didn't see Hellboy - but I will ignore that because I loved TDB and Pan sounds awesome. Anything that is exquisitely violent with saturated orange and blue? A modern day Alice in Wonderland?
What's going on down there? Orb videos, Pan? Following red birds? Next you'll be posting pics of white rabbits. Or your toothbrush holder will be a little man wearing a hat. And he'll be smiling at you.
Sweet cardinals. We made DIY birdfeeders out of oj cartons just so I could see the cardinals. And bluebirds...I love those chubby little guys. I saw a few just a couple of times in Atlanta. They looked so fat and happy. I don't remember what their chirp is like.
Hollii has me laughing about white rabbits. Maybe jc will find a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and he'll be the one laughing.
I love the way cardinals stand out in the winter time too! Now that you know what they sound like you will see them all the time!
Cardinals are my favorite bird of all. I get all excited when I see them. I'm dying to see Pan but haven't ventured to a movie by myself for awhile now.
Awww, I love cardinals!!
Pan's Labarynth was amazing. I got to see that and Notes on a Scandal last weekend. Now I need to see Last King of Scotland, the Queen, and Volver.
