There are 63 covered bridges in the province of New Brunswick and I love finding them in those 'out of the way' places. I have photographed most all of them, with only about 4 or 5 yet to locate. I still have many photos yet to post on my New Brunswick Covered Bridges blog. If you would like to visit and see more pictures of Covered Bridges, just click on the picture above.

I know a lot of people look at starlings as pests but I still think they have very attractive plummage, both summer and especially winter. This is a wonderful 'personality' shot!
What a pretty picture!
So perfect shot! A perfect for fall season too.
This post fits to mine §:-))
Have a nice day!
I LOVE whatever little tweaks you did to enhance this shot.
Just made it even more wonderful!!
Great picture, the berries make the bird look different.
dianne:
I was standing inside my house for this one and I lightened it some as it was a bit dark. The natural background is the clear sky and there you have it; with a bit of cropping and a tweak of sharpness. Glad you like it, I do too.
deborah:
I think the winter plumage of the Starling is beautiful, covered as they are with all those white looking-like snowflakes patterns all over their bodies. How about a 'flurry' of Starlings?
Very lovely picture.The contrast with the red berries and darker Starling really is spectacular.
another great shot and I agree very attractive plumage.
Well, I guess I'm the disenting vote and have never thought they were attractive! This is a lovely shot and makes them look better! Seeing just one instead of hundreds raiding my feeder probably helps :-) They just always look a bit "creepy" to me.
Excellent photo. Starlings do look more handsome in their winter plumage. This picture almost has a Halloween feel to it, or at least an Alfred Hitchcock "The Birds" icon.
I was not into Starlings when they landed in my yard but by golly, after seeing your photo, I change my mind.
Absolutely spectacular photo! I love this.
