Blue Jay

January 19, 2011

After a recent heavy snow, food was scarce and our feeder was the only game in town. The mornings are filled with blue jays, up to nine at a time sharing the feeder!

Black Eyed Susan VineI wish I was out watering my flowers. Looking at the 5 inches of snow on the ground today, takes me back to the warm summer day that I took this photo.

Elk (Jackson Hole, WY)This is a beautiful bull elk near Jackson Hole, Wyoming. There is a wonderful place called The National Elk Refuge, where the elk come out of the mountains to eat and bed down for the winter.

Scenery: Antique Farm Rake In SnowThis is a photo of an antique rake we have in our yard near the pond. I usually have mums and flowers of all sorts growing through-out the year around this nice piece of history.

Scenery: Whirlpool State Park (Niagara, NY)The Niagara River makes a 90 degree turn at one point which causes natural whirlpools to appear, momentarily, and then they swirl away. You have to be quick on the shutter button to capture them!

Travel: Kyle of Lochalsh Public Toilets (Scotland)Thought you might be interested to see a photo of the public toilets at the Kyle of Lochalsh in the Highlands of Scotland. The toilets have won awards for cleanliness and uniqueness and have become something of a tourist attraction!

Scenery: Beach (Atlantic Coast)This was taken last summer on the Atlantic Coast. I think with all the extra cold weather (even here in Florida) we can use a little warming up.

Scenery: Running the Strawberry RowsWe try to pick strawberries locally every year. The long rows made a great place to do running "speed work" for Cameron, my 3 year old.

Scenery: Snow (Utah)This is a picture of our hottub in the background and our deck. Neither are usable today. Snow! We love it!

Scenery: Wishing Tree (Withalacochi River, Wahoo, FL)This unique swamp oak has grown for many years near the Withalacochi River near Wahoo FL. The locals call it the wishing tree because of its wish bone shape. If you sit on the fork and make a wish, it may come true. Be careful what you wish for.

Black and Yellow Argiope (Garden Spider)This "beautiful" specimen was hanging outside our living room window. This is as close as I wanted to get! I had never seen this type of web either, the zigzag pattern.

Kayaking the Natahala (North Carolina)Driving along the Natahala River in Western North Carolina is a beautiful experience. I stopped to snap a few photos of the natural beauty and this kayaker came along.

Reflection of the Paris Hotel (Las Vegas, NV)I took this photo in Las Vegas last fall. Part of the Paris Hotel is seen reflected in the side of the beautiful new City Center. I love how the glass distorts the image.

Sun Behind Clouds (Chicago, IL)Sometimes even an ugly, traffic filled ride home from work can be beautiful. This was taken while sitting in traffic right outside of Chicago, IL. There might not be any flowers or wild life, but the earth will still show her beauty.
