For the flowers are great blessings.

For the flowers have their angels, even the words of God’s creation.

For the flower glorifies God and the root parries the adversary.

For there is a language of flowers.

For the flowers are peculiarly the poetry of Christ.

-Christopher Smart (from Benjamin Brittens' 'Rejoice In The Lamb'

So, just kind of goofing around during a snowfall. 6-sec exposure (giving it that mustiness, the snow was really coming down at this point) with an ND8 filter and all the settings way up (down?): Exp Bias -5, f/22. But of course, that wasn't enough thus, the first 3 sec's were spent swiveling the camera back and forth on the tripod. Whole bunch of extra shit in post and viola! "Eess is what's we gots"

It's interesting all our locals have claimed this community fence to hangout..some sit & call out to there mates, once arrived they both go off to the feeders or into the trees.

This guy came into the backyard yesterday. I went out to make sure the deer could find it's way back over the fence. Instead he started following me around. Had to finally make enough noise for him to leave. Then hung out in the green belt, munching away for about 20 minutes. Before he left, I told him to watch out for the local Cougar.

Like many areas across the country lately, we have also been under Heat Advisories the past few days.

While I've seen lots of birds panting and squirrels pancaking, earlier today I caught a squirrel getting creative in trying to beat the heat. I spotted this one doing a pancake on one of our large stone owls under the holly bush.

Against all odds, it was still there when I returned from racing for the camera.

Taken through the kitchen window so not as clear as I'd like.

The Eagle Nebula (catalogued as Messier 16 or M16, and as NGC 6611, and also known as the Star Queen Nebula and The Spire) is a young open cluster of stars in the constellation Serpens, discovered by Jean-Philippe de Cheseaux in 1745–46. Both the "Eagle" and the "Star Queen" refer to visual impressions of the dark silhouette near the center of the nebula,an area made famous as the "Pillars of Creation" imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope. The nebula contains several active star-forming gas and dust regions, including the aforementioned Pillars of Creation. (Wikipedia)

As we shelter in place, I couldn’t resist picking up my camera and trying to get some images of birds in my backyard. Goldfinch in my Cherry Tree.

I go out of town for a few days and when I come back I find a juvenile raptor trying to rule our backyard lake (it was perched on a neighbor's fence when I first espied it...no more than 10 feet away)! Small, fast and agile, it was very difficult to track with my camera (as you will see in several empty frames...haha!).

Anyway, it tried attacking the ducklings in two separate "rafts" (ducks are more often referred to as a raft, team or paddling while the group is on water) but got scared off by the mothers Muscovy. I don't know if it will be back tomorrow but I will be waiting.
