Hope all my American friends will be lucky enough to be with family and/or friends today, and enjoy a good meal. A special Happy Thanksgiving to all those US servicemen and women (and their families, who also make so many sacrifices), who risk their lives on a daily basis, in order to keep the rest safe and free. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! We have so much to be thankful for, even in the hardest of times. Special thoughts, also, for the people over on the east coast, who have been having such a difficult time due to Hurricane Sandy. Remember to enjoy the small things in life - they tend to be the most important things, too. Please drive safely if you are on the roads. Photographed this little Red-breasted Nuthatch on 20 November 2012, when I was on a three-hour walk with friends at Votier's Flats, Fish Creek Park. Such a dreary morning and with a very unpleasant cold wind ... brrr. www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Red-breasted_Nuthatch/id en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-breasted_Nuthatch
