I attended a gorgeous wedding this weekend at the Arboretum here in Chicago. My niece married a wonderful guy, so I couldn't be happier for them. Wow! To be young and in love again. I cried, of course.
Between the tears, though, I spotted lots of birds flitting around in the trees, so during a break in the festivities, I wandered through the gardens to enjoy the birdlife. A binocular would have been too conspicuous, of course, and in bad taste, but fortunately I had my Nikon monocular in my purse, so all was not lost.
Bride, bridegroom, birds - what a wonderful way to spend a Saturday evening. Life is good.
