An Eastern Bluebird (Sialia sialis) was weathering out a rare central Texas blizzard as I roamed around looking for photo subjects. This shot made it worthwhile. Union Grove Wildlife Management Area, Bell County, Texas.
This photo has been selected by the nonprofit Texas Bluebird Society (http://www.flickr.com/photos/texasbluebirdsociety/8285648818/in/photostream) for their 2013 kickoff campaign.
On 30 Jan 2013, this photo came in 27th of 184 in a contest, Animals in Snow (http://fineartamerica.com/contests/animals-in-snow.html?tab=leaderboard). I think that is pretty good for a Texan who sees snow maybe a few days every couple of years.
Gary Holmes, photographer: I have always loved to photograph nature, landscapes, abstract, and other found objects of interest.

What a fabulous picture he made against this gorgeous mottled tan background and snowfall!
Gary Holmes replied:
Thank you very much, Mathilde. This was the result of several hours of wandering and sitting in a wildlife reserve near our home, in below-freezing temperatures. Probably the heaviest snowfall in central Texas in many years. I was about to give up and seek coffee when this fellow flew into the brush and made my day.
Gary Holmes
Thanks, Christopher, for the thoughtful comment. Greatly appreciated. This is one of my all-time best photos, in my own opinion, and it certainly came at a price in personal misery that day, so it is nice to hear such a positive response from an unbiased observer.

nice work. that guy really "pops" as we graphic designers say. made all the more moody and special with the falling snow.
