My entry for the 7.8.04 Theme Thursday. Shot at the Berkeley Arboretum.
Hey, it has wings.
And a cool thing on its head.

You have probably noticed that ThemeThursday has taken an indefinite intermission. There is very strong support for continuing the photo challenge. With the input of others, I have taken the initiative to create a new Thursday Challenge. I am hoping that you will continue to participate. It is at http://www.spunwithtears.com/thursday.html

The current theme is "Anything" and the new theme, to be posted at about 3am UTC (11pm EDT) today, is: "Sport" (Athletics, Fun, Play, etc.).

In the future I will be updating the page for submitting photo links ( http://www.spunwithtears.com/thursday.html
) and posting the theme for the next week each Wednesday at approximately 3am UTC (11pm EDT, 8pm PDT, 1am Thurs AEST).

I feel privileged to be your host for this meme and I will do everything that I can to make the it a great forum for sharing visual ideas and growing our photography skills.

If you would like, please feel free to let others know of the new website and theme as I have not been able to notify all of the past participants.
