Saturday's Critters

Saturday's Critters

Don't panic, none of them are poisonous and they were all very calm around people.  This was a display at the Fish and Wildlife Expo that we just couldn't pass up ...

Sorry for the blur ... the picture was taken by a friend who wasn't used to my camera :)

Is this not a beautiful snake?

Fancy Jewelry ...

And fun was had by all ... :p

Weekend Reflection

Scuffed by many a wet boot ...

Geometric Friday

 This was a pattern on something, I can't remember what.  But, it was black and white so I juggled it around a little and changed the color ...

Then, of course, started to play with it :)

I seem to have lost the geometrics in this one unless, of course, the heart could qualify as a geometric shape :) 

It is TGIF and I do ... :)  Have a great weekend everyone ...

NatureFootstep ... Catching Light

The sunset reflecting on my neighbor's window.  I really don't know what caused the swirling effect, but I thought it was beautiful ... Like an abstract painting :)  Have a great week everyone.

Mandarin Orange Monday

This is a bad picture of a cute horse that lives near me.  I decided to try to do something artistic with it so it wouldn't go to waste :)

Try #1 ...

Try #2

Well that is as good as it gets this round.  We have a "situation" we are dealing with here and it is hard to get my heart into being an artist today ... But couldn't miss Lori's comeback.  Happy MOM ... feels good to be able to say that again :)

Awwww ... sweet little kitty

Little?

Good Fences

Surprise ... a Fence!

This is on an empty lot down by the channel where Izzi and I walk almost every day.  She is not allowed to go on this lot because it has always been full of sky high weeds and ticks!  Yes, ticks ... which is not a good thing.  But this day when we walked down, someone had whacked all of the weeds and to my surprise, there is a fence ... and not a bad looking fence either.  I hope this means someone is going to build on this lot.  It is a beautiful place with a wonderful view ... any interest? :)

Have a wonderful day!

Sorry to disappoint folks, but the most common item in  my kitchen is clutter!  At any given time I could take this same picture.  Medicine bottles, scoops, coffee cups, cat dish, cat food, blueberries, a selection of hand lotions, hand soap, dish cloths and one disgusted cat.  His disgust is that I am taking his picture and not putting the cat food in the cat dish.  So Kitchen Stuff it is :) Have a great day ...

Wild Bird Wednesday

My house guest is actually a wild bird ...just not a free wild bird.  He would fly away in a minute if he had the chance, but he wouldn't survive with the wing injury he has.  That is why he stays with us  The American Kestrel is a migrating bird ... sensibly, they head south when it gets cold.  For that reason we have to keep him inside in the winter.  But, this week it got up into the 40's which he can tolerate, so we went for a walk in the neighborhood.  It's part of what we do to add to his quality of life.   If you look closely, you can see the little smile on his face :)

Happy WBW, Everyone!
