This post is scheduled to go live at 7:46AM in honor of my daughter's birth minute. She has been a blessing to me from the moment I knew of her existence. Below is a card I purchased for her this summer. Sadly, it got covered with a stack of papers and I never mailed it. So here it is, darling girl.
Sharing with Our World Tuesday. Thank you to the very generous hosts of this meme!

How cool is that?!!! To have the blog post celebrating her birth, the very minute she arrived the day of her birth.
...and Tri coloreds are a favorite of mine. Especially during the breeding season with all their rich, glorious colors. I love the one with the catch of the day in its mouth.
Well, happy birthday to Autumn...a little last-minute tax deduction. :) My birthday was yesterday, so I can empathize with her over having a birthday so close to Christmas.
I love Tri-Colored Tuesday! The first shot is so great, with a perfect reflection. I also love the "catch of the day" shot, the long neck, and the gorgeous wing.
Fabulous shots! Even though we don't have them here, I like Tri-colored Herons even more than the Great Blues. Maybe I'll get to see one someday. Happy Birthday to your daughter and have a Happy New Year!
love the tri-color! he's a star!
blessings to you and a big happy birthday to your daughter, too.
Such beautiful images and what a lovely tribute to your daughter. Happy Birthday to her and Happy New Year to you!!
A fine series of this unusually colored bird. Such a fine letter is better late than never. Well done.
Wonderful way to send greetings. Great colors in that Heron. Happy New Year to you Gail. Dianne
I love the next to last shot. So gorgeous.
Happy birthday to your daughter!
What wonderful photos you captured, I love the tri-colored herons, although I don't see them as often. Happy New Year to you!
prachtige momenten.
These are amazing. Such a great idea to post these photos weekly. My favorite is the 4th photo down with the fish in its mouth. Happy 2014 my friend.
Hugs~
Wow, great shots, love the one with the fish! Happy Birthday to your daughter, and Happy New Year to you and your family Gail!
Beautiful pictures! Love your blog!

Lovely post in honour of your daughter's birth!
Happy New Year and all the est in 2014!
What a beautiful picture of the purple heron (as he is known to us). Especially the reflection in the water, but also that he is eating a fish :-)
And how nice that you share the celebration of your daughter with us :-)
Soon it was in 2014.
Lots of luck, love and health in 2014.
Greetings, Helma

Happy Birthday Autumn! Special words for a precious daughter.
Girl....your photos are Outstanding! Truly Outstanding!! You are a very talented photographer and I love how you capture the most interesting of shots...
Happy New Year, sweet friend..

Great set of pictures (and a very nice card to your daughter!)
How do people get these "herons+fish" images!!! I think most of the herons I watch must be hopeless fisher-birds!
Thanks for all the comments this year.
Cheers and have a good New Year - Stewart M - Melbourne
That is such a beautiful card for your daughter Gail :) She is a lucky girl! Lovely images and the reflection in the first picture is just outstanding! Happy new year to you Gail :)
GREAT shots
I love to catch that mirror-look on water.
Loved the texture of the herons plume.
Wonderful! Every part of this post...the beautiful card for your beautiful daughter .. posting the post on her birth minute! And a great idea about the tri-color Tuesdays.
Awe....what a wonderful message to Autumn! We can learn so much from our children, and here we were thinking they were just learning from us ;-) Beautiful images as always.
