Planetary Parade

This morning on our walk we saw the above spectacle, a rare alignment of the planets along with the Moon. Next month, Mercury will join the parade as well. Additionally, Neptune, not visible to the eye, lies between Venus and Jupiter. By the weekend Jupiter and Venus will be very close together, and the alignmentContinue reading “Planetary Parade”

Roadside Flowers

From February through May flowers grace much of the roadsides in central Florida and add a colorful comfort for harried travelers.

Fresh holly blossoms bring bees to our back yard. The little bloomers are really buzzing.

Whirly Bug

The bug on the blade goes round and round. I discovered this thrill-seeing insect on the wind whirligig in our back yard when I went to straighten its mounting pole. I got this photo and then a light gust of wind sent the apparatus, bug and all, spinning merrily round and round.

Happy Easter

Wishing you the best of peace, love, and hope this Easter.
