From the far corners these little snow creatures have appeared on top of the sewing machine cabinet, and it seems that they will be staying through Christmas. I suspect that a Fairy and her Elf have been at it again. They are well behaved, and at least they won’t melt!

Spider Envy
At the end of my solar observation session yesterday, this green spider appeared on the lens cover. While green is assorted with envy in people, I know not if that applies to spiders, however, it does little to camouflage it on the black telescope. That could be very dangerous in this little bug’s eat-and-be-eaten world,Continue reading “Spider Envy”
White Christmas Florida Style
No snow, just cute little birds with curved beaks to make our yards white this holiday season. However, just like snow, you need to watch where you step after these birds have passed by. #whiteibis #christmas #snow
Late Bloomer
After our morning walk this misty blossom reminded us that like it, we were due for a shower. It is nice to live in a climate that allows us to see the occasional late season bloom dripping with droplets rather than frozen in frost. #autumn #hibiscus #bloom
Beginning to Taste Like Christmas
“Mmmmm” is for molasses cookies with frosting and sprinkles. The Christmas Fairy and her somewhat-dependable Elf were busy today! #christmas #cookies #fairy #elf
Rare Bird
We spotted this limpkin over the Thanksgiving weekend. It is a bird seldom seen, and we were delighted by this rare view. #limpkin #circlebbarpreserve
Good Night Heron
We found this black-crowned night heron during our walk at the Circle B Bar Nature Preserve. We had not seen one this year, so now it is # 117 on our annual bird list. YAY! #blackcrownednightheron #Circlebbarpreserve #birdlist
New Look for Christmas
With a little help from a friend, our old Christmas wreath is on the door with a new look. #Christmas #wreath
Cork-A-Doodle-Doo
A pleasant drive under partly sunny skies led us to Keel and Curley Winery where some light tasting followed by a wonderful meal left us quite satisfied. Afterwards we wandered the grounds past blueberry and strawberry plants, by a pig and some goats. Black and white speckled chickens clucked and squawked in a nearby cageContinue reading “Cork-A-Doodle-Doo”
Time to Turn Around
We figured we had gone far enough to when we came across this alligator just a couple of feet from the trail. Some tempted fate by passing by it, but we figured we didn’t need to. So we turned around and moseyed back the way we came. Good thing, because a couple hundred yards backContinue reading “Time to Turn Around”
