Downtown, on a back street near the river, three paint-peeled birdhouses stood on poles against an old shed. Over the years, I've photographed them countless times. I made cards with some of the images - to me they felt very wabi-sabi. This past autumn, one of the houses was leaning, the pole losing its grip with the ground. Recently, when I was downtown, I decided to visit the birdhouses. Someone has restored them - new paint and the poles realigned in the ground.
Will the birds like them better, I wonder?

Do I?
