I have finally bought a new Catwa head. I have been in love with my Lona head, and have yet to find one to compare to it. Well yesterday I demoed the Keme head and bought it this morning and made some minor tweaks. So here is the new me, in what I have to say a pic I really enjoyed making and I really like the way it came out. So be sure to pop on over to my blog where you can get all the details.. justapeeksite.wordpress.com/2018/02/17/peek-87/

Pretty Flamingo is one of a group of flamingoes in a local park. They are used to people and sometimes allow you to get quite close. I didn't even need a telezoon lens but could take this photo with my macro lens.

After the rain. Another peony from my garden.

“That last week the syringa came out at San Salvatore, and all the acacias flowered. No one had noticed how many acacias there were till one day the garden was full of a new scent, and there were the delicate trees, the lovely successors to the wistaria, hung all over among their trembling leaves with blossom. When, on the first of May, everybody went away, even after they had got to the bottom of the hill and passed through the iron gates out into the village they still could smell the acacias. They could smell them even when they reached London. But that’s another story.” ― Elizabeth von Arnim, “The Enchanted April” 1922

 

The theme for “Smile on Saturday” for the 28th of September is “flowers in pastel”, and since September indicates the beginning of spring in the Southern Hemisphere, I had a multitude of spring blossoms to choose from. Ornamental apple blossom is one of my favourite examples of spring blossom, so as I took this on the 2nd of September, it seemed the perfect choice for this week’s theme. I hope you like it too, and that it makes you smile!

Nerium oleander is a shrub or small tree in the dogbane family Apocynaceae, toxic in all its parts. It is the only species currently classified in the genus Nerium. It is most commonly known as nerium or oleander, from its superficial resemblance to the unrelated olive Olea. It is so widely cultivated that no precise region of origin has been identified, though southwest Asia has been suggested. Oleander is one of the most poisonous commonly grown garden plants. Oleander grows to 2–6 m tall, with erect stems that splay outward as they mature; first-year stems have a glaucous bloom, while mature stems have a grayish bark. The flowers grow in clusters at the end of each branch; they are white, pink to red. 7140

This pretty prism is a wind ornament. I probably won't hang it outside, I don't want it to break.

🎼: Pretty Flamingo ~Manfred Mann~

 

On our block all of the guys call her flamingo

Cause her hair glows like the sun

And her eyes can light the skies

When she walks she moves so fine like a flamingo

Crimson dress that clings so tight

She's out of reach and out of sight

When she walks by she brightens up the neighborhood

Oh every guy would make her his if he just could

If she just would

Some sweet day I'll make her mine pretty flamingo

Then every guy will envy me

Cause paradise is where I'll be

Pretty flamingo

Pretty flamingo

When she walks by she brightens up the neighborhood

Oh every guy would make her his if he just could

Roseate Spoonbill

 

From Florida Hikes:

 

There’s no mistaking the roseate spoonbill, with its bright pink plumage and distinctive shovel-shaped beak. Usually seen in pairs or large groups, they feed on mud flats.

   

It is a genus of about 500 species of flowering plants in the family Ranunculaceae. Members of the genus are known as buttercups, spearworts and water crowfoots. The familiar and widespread buttercup of gardens throughout Northern Europe (and introduced elsewhere) is the creeping buttercup Ranunculus repens, which has extremely tough and tenacious roots. Two other species are also widespread, the bulbous buttercup Ranunculus bulbosus and the much taller meadow buttercup Ranunculus acris. All three are often regarded as invasive weeds. Buttercups usually flower in the spring, but flowers may be found throughout the summer, especially where the plants are growing as opportunistic colonizers, as in the case of garden weeds. The water crowfoots (Ranunculus subgenus Batrachium), which grow in still or running water, are sometimes treated in a separate genus Batrachium. They have two different leaf types, thread-like leaves underwater and broader floating leaves. In some species, such as R. aquatilis, a third, intermediate leaf type occurs. Ranunculus species are used as food by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including the Hebrew character and small angle shades. Some species are popular ornamental flowers in horticulture, with many cultivars selected for large and brightly coloured flowers. Buttercups are mostly perennial, but occasionally annual or biennial, herbaceous, aquatic or terrestrial plants, often with leaves in a rosette at the base of the stem. In many perennial species runners are sent out that will develop new plants with roots and rosettes at the distanced nodes. 12268
