Sweet berries in its beak. The haze is very bad & only few birds came to the flower garden.

First try at street photography in Manchester.

A couple more pieces from the Great Lakes Chalk Art Competition this past weekend. The artist, Tom Ward, was still working on this one.

the area behind the feeders has from left to right Astrantia star of love centaurea amethyst snow pyracantha rogersiana flava with some evening primrose mixed in

 

A very nice looking Back on black Maserati on Inverness terrace.

Haven't uploaded a picture in far too long so here's something to change that trend.

Digital painting.

View round teh back - and motor scooters weaving their way through as well!

My first year of any competitive sports at 7 years old. The helmet and uniform are bigger than me! Northwest Colts Ruled!

 

Been a busy weekend and I'll catch up tomorrow!

Better view of the back, and you can see how the joint is attached with ball joints--better posing this way. You can also see where pretty much all of the shocks go in robot mode.

thx Donald for the ID help! showed up at one of my feeders yesterday, but didn't stay long enough for me to really see it or snap a picture...today, I think he or she posed.

Back to the flea market in Sungei Road.

So, I was reviewing my Flickr stats and I noticed that I never got back to the story on this picture, like I promised. And in order to tell the story, I decided I needed this picture.

 

I had picked as a random destination on the Plains the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve just outside of Strong City, KS. Little did I realize that the "prairie" is actually in the Flint Hills of Kansas. Anyway, this is the sunrise from the welcome center-type area at the Preserve. Actually, I climbed the hill that the Big House sits on to get this shot because -- unbeknownst to me -- the welcome center was still under construction.

 

(The Preserve's web site will help make sense of it all.)

 

So this was what I got for the sunrise. Kind of "meh" but indicative of the place. And while it looks clear, the rest of the sky was covered in a cloud layer. And that's where I'll pick up the good part of this story.
