Rascally Racoon

January 29, 2010

I met this raccoon one winter when I lived in Virginia.  I had a bird feeder right out my back window, and I would often sit in the window seat to watch the birds.  One day I looked out and saw this raccoon trying to climb the feeder.  The feeder was on a metal pole [...]

Sentinel Birch Tree

January 28, 2010

This is my sentinel birch tree friend.  I have over-saturated the photo for fun and to show more extreme contrast.  This tree lives in Vermont where I resided for awhile. I love this tree.  Every time I drove up to the cob home where we lived, this tree would welcome me.  It towered at the [...]

I love nuthatches.  They have so much to [...]

Unexpected Visitor

January 24, 2010

This owl visited with us daily for a couple of weeks last year in Vermont during this same month.  We were thrilled to have her with us.  Each day she would arrive between 4-5pm, and she was often there when we awoke the next morning.  This particular photo was taken one morning during our breakfast [...]

Welcome!

January 23, 2010

A few years ago I took up the hobby of photography.  It wasn’t long before I began happily sharing my photos with friends and family, then on Facebook and even Twitter.  Photography brings me such joy, and I love sharing that joy with others. I decided that a Photo Blog might be a fun way [...]
