Christmas Songbirds

Somebody has decorated the whole garden for the birds. In the middle a fir wreath hangs round a little white birdhouse, tied with a red bow and strung with popcorn, cranberries and dried apple rings, and the cardinals and bluebirds are helping themselves to the lot.

Round the outside, four snowy views of the same garden: birdhouses in the birches, baubles hung on bare twigs, a red barn away in the distance and a small Santa out by the picket fence.
