No matter how cold or blustery it is outside - Doc. Doolittle must feed the birds. This year two dozen wild spruce hens have discovered the birdseed, and now flock around Doc. when he fills the feeders. Disgruntled Magpies try to chase them away, but to no avail, oh well . . . as Doc is fond of saying; "Everything has to eat."

Something very different this time, I always wanted to try this sort of thing.

When I looked through my surfing shots, this one was the perfect series to give it a go.

Hope you like it, constructive criticism is more than welcome.

Thanks for looking

It wouldn't be autumn if I didn't have some Indian corn in my home. Many years ago my hubby and I grew it on our farm. The kid's and I had the best time pulling back the husks and discovering the rich colors that lay beneath each ear. Just another wonderful memory I have tucked away in my heart and mind.

I found this mirror and played around with it until I was really confused.

Thanks to Podsville for the tools needed to make the magic easy. He knows not what he's done.

Last week we were basking in eighty degree temperature's. This week we have been struggling to reach the high fifties during the day, and have been down to forty degrees at night. With that in mind - my rhubarb bed has produced some beautifully colored leaves - alerting us to the fact that it is time to get it ready for its long winters nap. There are stalks to pull, and spruce bows to gather, to tuck it in properly. Doc will squeeze that job in between his log splitting and wood stacking. Hopefully next autumn I will be back to my full strength, and able to give Doc some real help getting ready for winter.

This used to be the South Park Calvary United Presbyterian Church. The church was built in 1853; however, only the facade remains after a 1992 fire. Today, a community garden exists where the sanctuary was.

Can you imagine . . . looking up at the moon and seeing roads and lights? Some people would like to populate the moon and a couple of the other planets in our solar system. As for me - I would rather not know what is up there on the surface of the various planets. I liked things better when there was a little left to our imaginations. Was the moon really made of cheese? (That's what we were told when I was just a kid.)

This is a silly rendition of what I think the moon would look like if it were populated, and there were freeways running to and fro. I shot this on a very cold winter morning from the window of our cabin. It was much too cold for me to suit up and go out and capture it. These days I leave that up to the younger generations.

I found a bunch of starlings today. They seemed to like me.
