Struggling to escape, moon gave up on the fight
Scrub jays gathered atop the great tree
Pecking and prodding until moon was set free
Monochrome Monday in infrared

Beautiful post! The first image is my favorite.
Thank you. I liked that one too.
Lovely post Siobhan. Which came first, the images or the poem? Either way they are wonderful together.
Thanks, Tina! The tree photo came first. I had already written a factual nonfiction post for it, but the more I looked at it, the more I thought it deserved a story.
