These beautiful blue berries from my Virginia Creeper Vine are like chocolate for the birds. There is a pair of Flickers that are gorging on them! All the other birds are enjoying them too, including a pair of Stellar Blue Jays. The Jays don't seem to sit still long enough for me to get a picture.
The vine is lush and green in the spring and summer and the berries are red. As the colder weather sets in the berries begin to turn blue and the leaves and stems turn red! I love that the birds get such enjoyment out of them.

Welcome To My Colorful World!
Welcome to my colorful world. I am a happy (most of the time!) wife, mom, MeMaw, artist, and art teacher. I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I also love to create, cook, nest, decorate, entertain family and friends, laugh, collect vintage stuff, snuggle my cats and dog, play outdoors, and so much more! In addition to all this, I also publish an online magazine with my dear friend, called Mermaids of the Lake. Oh, and I love a big cup of coffee with cream, a dry martini, red wine, blingy jewelry, pink lipstick, blue fingernail polish. I love color! Beautiful colors inspire, motivate, and move me!!! What's my favorite color? I can't choose. I love them all! Yellow, pink, red, turquoise, blue, purple, orange, green and every variation in between!
