A bright sprite casting its shadow in the morning light conjured smiles that lasted for the whole day. #sprite #morninglight #smiles

Peekaboo!
While we were walking through the forest, yellow flowers popped in and out of view, winking and blinking and piquing our curiosity. We just had to stop to admire a pair of them; they were certainly worth a peek or two. #peekaboo #vines #flowers #forest
Bye Bye Birdie
One moment it was merrily chipping away at seeds in the feeder and then it was gone in a flash. Only one frame of the video revealed its wings and feathers spread out as it launched into flight. The next frames showed only a tiny brown blur as it disappeared towards some bushes without soContinue reading “Bye Bye Birdie”
Peter Chocolate Tail
I found these huge chocolate bunnies on the shelf at Costco about six weeks before Easter. If I ever saw a live bunny that size, I think I might run and hide. They may be hollow but they are 4.4 pounds of chocolate which, of course, my instincts are to run to, not from. Let’sContinue reading “Peter Chocolate Tail”
Planetary Trifecta
As yesterday came to a close, planets in the western sky gradually appeared one by one. In this photo Venus rests in the orange glow just above a rooftop. Several minutes later, Saturn came into view near the wispy clouds just below the branches in the upper part of the photo. Finally, as the twilightContinue reading “Planetary Trifecta”
Lesser “Anthilles”
Anthills appeared to rise like islands in an asphalt ocean and reminded me of a chain of volcanic islands in the southeastern Caribbean. Now if I could just think of a name to call them… #anthills #caribbean #lesserantilles
How Much Wood Would…

Chips of wood from limbs and old stumps flew in various directions and littered the ground below proving that unlike the proverbial woodchuck, they certainly could chuck wood. #woodpecker #piliated, #woodchuck #chuckwood
Rorschach-ed
Low light from the setting sun cast a shadow of a bottle stopper across the countertop that was both startling and amazing. I would never have imagined such a sight. How did it do that? It looked like neither a bottle stopper nor a shadow at first glance, but rather a figure suspended in space.Continue reading “Rorschach-ed”
Due to Dew?
Droplets of water sparkled like due in the soft morning light. Then it dawned on me that the sprinklers had just finished watering so, the droplets on the flowers were not just due to dew. #dew #due #morning
Twilight’s Last Gleaming
The thin crescent Moon was higher than usual in the sky last night due to the inclination of its orbit. See it once more tonight and also in four weeks when again it will be a thin crescent smiling high in the “twilight’s last gleaming.” #twilight #gleaming #moon
