Pining Away

Since people didn’t seem to mind my ramblings yesterday I thought I might ramble just a little more. Mom’s comment, “I guess we should all carry cameras to…

Pod

This is a Wisteria pod. Shirley had a Wisteria vine growing in the back yard. I’m sure it is beautiful when it blooms. I really liked how the…

Nature’s Natural Color

The natural color, the lines, the texture all these things add up to a beautiful leaf.

In Flight

This year, there didn’t seem to be as many birds hanging around the dock in front of the place my parents are staying. Last year there were pelicans…

Fish heads fish heads…

rolly polly fish heads, eat them up. Yumm! Ah yes, the good old days of Dr. Demento. I did not know this but Bill Mumy, the kid from…

I See A Manatee!

Yes! We finally saw a manatee in Manatee Pocket! Not just one but 3! For three days we saw a mother manatee and her baby and on the…

Crabby

I just happened to catch this critter out of the corner of my eye. He had dug this hole about 2 feet from the water (located near the…

Petal Soft

Here’s a shot taken back in September. It’s only February and I’m already looking forward to Spring. There are some flowers blooming in Florida which is a very…

Branches

I just liked the look of this tree/bush. Nothing much to say about it other than it looks cold and that’s they way it’s been around here. They…

Green Thingamajig Bud

This is a close-up of one of the buds from yesterday’s photo. Chris was kind enough to post and let me know that it’s a Rhododendron plant. Again,…

Green Thingamajig

I’m not good with names…of anything (people, plants, birds, etc.). I liked the look of this plant, especially with the dusting of snow on it. This was taken…

Lunch Time

What a difference a few days can make. In Friday’s photo I mentioned that after I setup the camera in front of the window the birds flew off…

Cold Dinner

I looked out the window and two birds were feeding at the bird feeder. I ran upstairs to grab the camera and tripod. Got it all set up…

Pineneedles

This is how I’d feel if I had snow dumped on me. This branch looks as if every needle shot straight out when the cold hit it. Winter…

Snowberry

When it snows the sky is gray and everything is covered in a blanket of white. The slightest colors seem to jump out of the scenery. I love…

The First Snowfall

I decided last week that I would put aside the rest of the photos I had of Plimoth Plantation (I’m sure they’ll pop up again) and move onto…

How Now Brown Cow

A few hundred feet down from where the sheep were grazing we came across a field with cows. I’m assuming they belong to the same farm. I liked…

Twinkle, is that you?

These shots were taken at the farm on Elm Street in Plympton. Last weekend, Mom and I had gone to the cafe for lunch and then walked around…

Lazy Llama

I’m not sure that this llama is actually lazy but she was lying down the entire time I was taking pictures. One of the houses in Plympton has…

Bountiful Colors of Fall

The fall colors have really been spectacular this past week. Besides the leaves changing, another sign that winter is fast approaching, is that we had to change the…

Where Acorns Lay

Here’s another sign that Fall is in full swing. I was walking around the Muddy River and came across these acorns. Apparently, someone had a fine meal. There’s…

Aged Daisy

I mentioned on Wednesday that I walked around trying to take photos that would showcase the sky that day (Tuesday’s & Wednesday’s posts). This daisy was another shot…

Hot Dog

When Josh and I were walking around Boston on Sunday it reminded me of the Photo Walk I took part in back in August. A lot of the…

Groovin, On A Sunday Afternoon

This duck was in the Public Garden on Sunday. I loved how he was just cruising along, enjoying the day like the rest of us. I wish I…

Bird in Paradise

I forgot how packed Faneuil Hall can be on a nice day. Josh and I went inside the food court to get something to eat and barely made…

Roses are Pink

After four days of photos with wet leaves I thought it might be nice to end the week with a pretty pink rose. This was taken a couple…

Browned Yellow Leaf

This leaf, lying in the driveway, caught my eye. It looks as if it’s taken a beating yet has a little life left in it.

There Is A Season Turn Turn Turn

Can you believe it’s October 1st today! Where did the month of September go? It’s officially fall, although this past weekend was in the high 60s to low…

Autumn Leaves and Gentle Rain

Here I was trying to capture the rain drops on the tips of these leaves but really like the droplets on the leaves themselves. I somehow managed to…

Oh, Nuts!

I swear there must be some type of squirrel boxing organization. Every shot I take of a squirrel looks as if they are in a boxing stance (see…

Aflac

Okay, it's not the Aflac duck, it's a swan. But the way she was looking right at me reminded me of the Aflac duck. I went to a…

Snow White

I found this white flower to be so pure and simple. I'm back from vacation. We had a really great time. Weather was perfect, rafting was ehilarating, kayaking…

Hey Bud

Looking at this photo I remember the day I went over to the park to take photos and how it was in the mid 80s and I was…

I’m looking through you…

While I was taking photos of the bees on the flowers a couple weeks ago, I looked up and saw this flower. I thought this perspective looked pretty…

I’ve seen a dragon fly

Is it just me or is this little bugger smiling for the camera? I swear it looks like he has a big smile on his face! I was…

I’m so pretty

Here's another flower that I have no idea what it is called. I just thought it was so pretty. I like how it blooms at one end and…
