Squirrel Portraits

These little guys really seem to like to pose for me!

Saturday

Saturday Dragons......Sort of

Well, not actually a dragon, but my first dragonfly
of 2008!
I think that means Spring is really here!!


He looks metallic green with light blue on his tail.
This is the same shot as above, I just rotated it to the right so you
could seem him horizontally. He actually landed vertically, as the
first shot shows. I was so excited that these shots turned out.
This guy was really TINY!
(click on the last pic to enlarge....it really makes a difference)
Happy Saturday Everyone!
PS - If anyone can identify this guy, please leave a comment! It would
be VERY much appreciated!!

We Remember - April 16th

One year ago today, the campus of Virginia Tech and
our small town of Blacksburg, Virginia was turned upside down.
Take time today to remember all of those that were lost....
and don't forget to say "I love you" to those special people in your lives.

There is Just Something About Yellow


Yellow Wildflowers Make Me Happy :)

Bird in a Bush

 Not to waste the spring I threw down everything, 
And ran into the open world 
To sing what I could sing... 
To dance what I could dance! 
And join with everyone! 
I wandered with a reckless heart beneath the newborn sun. 
— Roman Payne

My day is done, and I am like a boat drawn on the beach,  listening to the dance-music of the tide in the evening.
