Best way to start a year

Mild and cloudy, perfect start to a new year. Oh my gosh, the great blue heron is in town.
The shovellers were doing their thing, swirling lake water and pulling out food.
The best was the titmouse encounter. They are so trusting. I set the nuts on post just to show how willing they are to come close.  They were eating out of my hand, but there's no way to shoot that, so I used someone else's hand. Total magic. They fly into hand, maybe grab something fast, often stay a while and study nuts and human face. Perfect magic for Jan, 1st.
