"Learning should be an active process. Too often, students come to school to watch their teachers work." Will Daggett

My ma, 'the poet', who is the litle girl on the left, also wrote this poem:
Learning Time
Old stone wall giant in height
A two year old holds tight to the hand in sight
Swarms of Green with kaleidoscope heads held high
Holding breath what's at the end of the adventure of night.
Peeping and plodding along, around the curving path, not sure what's to be
Oh a mass of Green not a disappointment to see
A gentle hand on it pulls tight, not just a bunch of Green but a smell of delight.
A voice of knowledge now explains nature's way
The bunch preciously held is on its way
Mint in the making for lunch it will be
And a two year old has learnt something else for free.
- Chris Burt

A baby Sandhill Crane walks with his mother learning as he goes. Stopping to feed when she does and being too young to fly, trying to keep up as best as he can.

“There was once a bird who wanted to fly alone - away from the others. He was worried if he followed the group he would never find his own place.” S. Badani
And learning how to use Lightroom 5...I am used to old Photoshop CS4 but decided to try Lightroom 5 and I love it! There is however a learning curve and I have experienced some frustration. But it is indeed a great program and I do recommend it.
Hope all is well in the world of Flickr!

Only one flower of the bunch thriving. This is an old shot playing with a new bounce flash. I liked how the pic turned out and the rest as they say, is history. :)

The fawns are learning to graze. Still reliant on momma's milk, though. Yearling buck behind this fawn. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
"Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out, for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
I'm learning to fly, around the clouds,
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing"
Tom Petty/Jeff Lynne
