And how you were so moved by the grave of the special needs child. I used to work with autistic children myself, so that is something we have in common. My nephew is autistic and that's how I became interested. It was a special time for me. Your photos of this beautiful place were lovely, especially the festive decorations for the mother who had recently passed, and those lovely pink flowers. Yes, I can imagine it would be a great place to bird, too. Thanks for your comments about my No Fear post also. I always enjoy reading your comments.

To accept all you have to do is tell us 7 things about yourself and nominate 15 other bloggers. You can find the BBA thumbnail on my blog if you'd like to post it on yours and, you know, show it off :) Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01341233630137969987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-54278200745214999942012-10-30T09:38:49.389-07:002012-10-30T09:38:49.389-07:00Cemeteries really do have a lot to offer to the li...Cemeteries really do have a lot to offer to the living.Gaelynhttp://geogypsytraveler.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-10576247791800282662012-10-30T09:34:35.726-07:002012-10-30T09:34:35.726-07:00I would never have thought of this aspect of a cem...I would never have thought of this aspect of a cemetery, but it does make sense.

Cemeteries can be very good for birds on this side of the pond also, especially the old ones which tend to have old trees in them. They can be quite spooky at night if the owls start calling!

Our local one used to have a part which was purposely left to grow wild to attract butterflies etc. but sadly they seem to have discontinued the idea and there were no wild flowers or butterflies this year :-(<br /><br />I agree, it can be fascinating and often sad to read the inscriptions on the headstones and to wonder about the lives of those who have passed. It is also always a sharp reminder of how very transient life is.ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-15410989175732499872012-10-30T02:04:43.654-07:002012-10-30T02:04:43.654-07:00I've never tried birding in a cemetery before,...I've never tried birding in a cemetery before, but after your success I might just give it a go!!Red Nomad OZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03020668094026661054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-50421585747399127122012-10-30T01:52:09.811-07:002012-10-30T01:52:09.811-07:00Hi Kreesh, my friend, this is very timely as peopl...Hi Kreesh, my friend, this is very timely as people here are also preparing their tombs for the holiday visit.

Dla nas cmentarz, to miejsce zadumy, a dla ptaków to kolejne miejsce, gdzie żyją. Pozdrawiam.<br />Cemeteries with us completely different look. U you look beautiful bouquets of flowers as if coming out of the ground. For us, a cemetery, a place of reflection, and for the birds to another place where they live.
