wreath

I took this shot through the window on my front door. This little guy, and his mate, are diligently spending hours taking apart the wreath hanging on the door. Every day there’s a little more missing! And up in some nearby tree, I’m sure a nest is growing. I’ve chosen to be happy about losing the wreath in pieces – Spring is near. And it’s about time.

Enjoy the wreath feathered friends. May you make a good home.

hay

Helping friends seems to be the theme of the day – new computers, a truck to load….

Every now and then – and I love it when this happens – just out of the corner of my eye, I’ll catch something and think “nah, not really a shot,” and talk myself into looking again anyway. Happened on the way in to work this morning as I was driving down Farm Lane. I usually take the bus, but I need my car on campus today. So I drove in to work. Which I don’t like.

Talking myself into turning around, going back and trying to get this shot was worth having to drive in to work. I think what caught my eye was the steam dancing in the first rays of the sunrise.

Now – back to work!

Crane

Yet another from the archive – a few long days in a row here, so I’m calling the day done.

I took this just as the sun was diving into the horizon a few years ago in Kyoto at Fushimi Inari.  It’s been few years now, but I still remember what an amazing day we had there. And I still remember trying the grilled sparrow on a stick. Not exactly “yum.”

daggum

Oh just daggum… The end of another day and I didn’t get out to shoot. I’m trying to read through a book very quickly right now and that’s consuming my time, so it’s one from the archives. Again.
