Good morning friends...it's early and a very cold 18 degrees outside. I just filled my bird bowls with warm water and already they are coming for a morning drink.

This handsome guy comes everyday for a 'cocktail'
I love Mockingbirds...not the most colorful, but so elegant and proud looking. His beautiful song more than makes up for his lack of color.
This reminds me of the Sesame Street song....
One of these things is not like the other
one of these things just doesn't belong
can you tell which thing is not like the other
before I finish my song
Of course, everybody's favorite, the gorgeous Eastern Bluebird. The females are at the back and males in front. Notice how much more colorful the boys are....show offs!
Please remember that if you feed the birds in the winter, you must also give them fresh water. When everything is frozen, they have such a hard time finding any. Your reward will be a beautiful and fun show everyday.
Ok...now about this Giveaway. As those who visit me on a regular basis already know, I have been obsessed with knitting 'Circle of Love' scarves for the last few months. I have amassed quite a collection and find myself creating more each day.
This is just some of my collection. Some are more snug around the neck...some more drapey. On many I have taken advantage of my yarn stash and incorporated as many as 7-8 different yarns in one scarf. I have used Alpaca, Wool, Mohair, Soy, Cotton, Acrylic and lots of fun fashion yarns for flair.
All are very soft, super warm and cozy and so very practical.
But the most important quality of my scarves is all the love I knitted into them. They were born during a time of hope and friendship.
That is the spirit in which I will give them away.
I also have been having a little fun crocheting wool flowers which I wet felt by hand. I will be creating pretty detachable brooches that can be worn on your scarf or pinned to another garment. One of these brooches will be included with each scarf.
Here are just a few ......

So here we go.........
I will try to keep my Giveaway simple, all I ask is that you be a follower and please leave a comment telling me if you have a color preference. I would love for you to spread the word via Twitter, Facebook and such, but that is not a requirement.
If you have time to blog about my giveaway that would be wonderful and appreciated...don't worry, I have enough for multiple winners.
I do not want to exclude my dear international friends, so YES...you are all included!
This is all in honor of my dear friend Phyllis, who I know would approve of all this love being shared with all of you.
So are you feeling lucky??
Giveaway will be open until Sunday, January 16th so you have lot's of time to enter and tell your friends.
