A teetotaler ~ except for that one time...
Mon May 14, 2012 7:59 AM EDT
Just a short story; but oh so revealing of the two personalities of my parents. Dad traveled a few times a year all over the country. I had the luxury of getting to go on many of these trips and didn't really start protesting until I was near 17. Then like such a child, I didn't …

~ Going Home ~
Sun May 13, 2012 9:02 AM EDT
When I was little we traveled, a lot! My grandparents lived in Kentucky. My paternal grandparent's two sons had moved to Ohio to work at the same job in two different counties. It was incredible and amazing and it was a long way from their roots. My mom's parents lived acro …

Yes they're Blue and of course they're called Green Herons
Sat May 5, 2012 7:15 AM EDT
The ironies of life I guess. I have such issues with bird names..they can have a solid red head and a speck of red on their tummies and they're named Red-Bellied...or they can be spectacular in color and voice and their name begins with "Common". It is one of my pet peeves. Gues …

It's What I Do
Sun Apr 29, 2012 8:33 PM EDT
I really do enjoy photographing my bird visitors; so much so that I feel like I know who is who and that they really aren't "visitors" at all. I think they call the farm their home too. Recording their visits is not something my family will ever cherish, I don't imagine. The gra …

I go "over-board" when the species' mingle. Admittedly fuzzy pictures; but I was working on catching the entire reflection in the pond and didn't want to miss the challenge of trying that and capturing the Geese and Wood Ducks because I couldn't get clear focus. Hope you enjoy t …
