The fastener on Izzy's old collar - harness.
I tried taking this with my Panasonic, but just couldn't get what I wanted, so tried on my Fuji. The Fuji won out hands down.

The shell is 1.5 cm at its longest point and the square is 2.54 cm. I also measured out a 2.54 cm square to make sure I was within the limit for this week's theme.
I found some sandy gravel in the garden and put the shell on that to give it some background. The rest was natural lighting.

This is a tiny corner of Melba's front garden, which is right next to mine. She went to visit her family a couple of weeks, but was never to return home as she passed away unexpectedly last Monday.
After all our rain, the sun shone brightly and briefly today. I went out with my camera and saw the light falling on all her carefully tended plants and casting shadows from the trees. I felt a sudden pang of sadness that she would not enjoy this ever again. Having lived here for 60 years with her devoted husband who died exactly a year ago, perhaps her enjoyment of living here actually ended then. The end of an era in our little enclave of 6 houses.

Valle del Cauca, Colombia along the old road from Cali to Buenaventura,
This is a Silver-throated Tanager (Tangara icterocephala), a colorful tanager that is found in humid mountain forests in Costa Rica, Panamá, Colombia and Ecuador at elevations from 400 to 1,600 meters (1,300 to 5,200 feet) above sea level.
At Km. 18, Valle del Cauca, Colombia.

This one just doesn't look safe to sit on and where do you put your feet?!

At Km 18, Valle del Cauca, Colombia. The Multicolored Tanager (Chlorochrysa nitidissima) is among the most beautiful birds that are found in Colombia. This bird is endemic to the mountains of Colombia, and as of 2010 has been categorized as vulnerable (VU) by the IUCN. It was a commonly encountered bird in its small range, but loss of habitat is causing a serious decline in populations. The Multicolored Tanager is found mainly from 1300 to 2200 meters above sea level in the interior of wet forests.
Just loved the contrasts in the sky and the leafless tree.

. . . This Snowy Owl is one of the two "Sisters" I posted yesterday, and she noiselessly floats over the ice water and melting slabs of ice at the Muskegon Wastewater plant. Although I had no idea at the time, I really like the shadowy reflection of her wing!
Have a great Friday and weekend Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
February 18, 2018, at KM 18, Valle del Cauca, Colombia,
This is a female Tawny-bellied Hermit (Phaethornis syrmatophorus) with nesting material. We are certain that it is a female because only she is responsible for building the nest. The Tawny-bellied Hermit is about 13 cm ( 5 inches) in length. They are found in the central and western Andes of Colombia and northern Ecuador where they inhabit moist mountain forests at altitudes ranging from 1,100 to 2,100 meters (3,600 to 7,000 feet) above sea level.
