Tiny Flower.

Madsnapper's tiny flower nestled, growing

in the hole of the oak tree, inspired these

pics. The flower above is a little larger than

the end of a pencil erasure. I was attracted

to it because it looked like an orchid, notice

the top flower.

This flower above, is 4x the size of the 

end of a pencil erasure. Not focused to good.

This fellow above just would not go away,

Soooooooooo.

Lone Flower

I will be the gladdest thing

Under the sun !

I will touch a hundred flowers,

And not pick one.

"And not pick one."

Slecting a Home.

Looks like this home has Woodpecker

infestation.

Great entrance, needs more lighting. 

Where is the seed feeder.

No cats, I hope.

This is a home, not a place to put

badminton shuttle cocks !

WELL !  I never..... I have been volleyed

one to many times.

Blue Jay

I saw the parent feeding this young

Blue Jay. I took some pics then watched

from a distance for a while. I was

interupted by a neighbor for 30 min, so

when I went back the baby was gone.

I looked around but did not find it. I

sure hope it survived.

Please click on picture for better detail.

Not to be confused with "Toronto Blue Jays"

What is it called.

Madsnapper was Right "floatsam"

I shot this pic on a visit to the river bank, I saw this
in the marshy area.
We see junk such as this along the Shore, and even
river banks. What is a word or term that is used to
describe this junk or debris.

My Cement Bench

Observing- Polinating lantina.

Can't seem to do much with these lenses

on Macro setting.

How large, fish.

Depending on the sea shore for food.

Todays catch, on tomorrows table.

Bench Sitting

Things I see while sitting on

the cement bench, in my front yard.

Waiting my turn at the bird bath,

or my turn at the feeder.

Patiente Hawk on the nest.

Tree frog hitched a ride in car door.

Rabbit at the bird feeder,

go figure.

Below, dragon fly I think.

Happy Father's day.

Pick some Flowers and give them

to your beautiful Wife,

to show her you appreciate her !!

Then take Her advice, (see below).

Go to the Spa for a soak in the hot tub.

Watch a ball game.

The wife is always telling you to

go fly a kite, Do it.

Go Fishing.

Get some refreshment's, it's your day

Popa, enjoy. 

At the Bird Bath.

But !

You are just sitting there !!

During this hot weather, the bird bath

is a very amusing place to take photos.

Above, the yellow fellow to the upper

right tried for quite a while to get a

refreshing cooldown, but never succeeded.

The gathering included; Doves, Cardinals,

Mocking birds, Blue birds, Gold Finch, Red

Wing black bird, a Fly catcher of some kind,

and a Painted Bunting. At the distance, this

was the best my amature ability could do.

Look at the photo below.

I know I can hear the female Blue bird

say, "we need to add a bath"
