Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a pink or a purple day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Smile on Saturday is eggs from chickens & co. Of course in my case it will be chicken eggs since that is the only kind of eggs I have in my kitchen right now….
And since yesterday was a B&W picture, let's put some colors on my today’s post. Be careful: very bold and bright colors ahead !! I don’t want you to burn your retina by watching my picture for too long…As for the eggs in my picture: those are my favorite painted eggs (I painted them myself) from my personal collection. You have seen some of them in previous pictures …. We all know by now that chicken floating eggs are my favorite of all times !!
I hope it will make you smile !! Happy SOS !!

Spotted on a leaf on our Nandina plant. I am not sure what sort of creature has laid them or how long they have been there.
Hello my Flickr Friends !
Today is a black & white day at Color my World Daily Group and yesterday we had a small party so I definitely feel like a post processed picture from Sliders Sunday Group (lol that doesn’t make any sense but it is my general feeling today …).
So here is my very late and last minute emergency black & white picture from my archives.
Happy CMWD and Happy Sliders Sunday to all participants !! And awesome day to all Flickr users !!
I will try to catch up as soon as possible with your comments and Photostreams but since I’m officially on vacation with my sons my activity on Flickr will be rather slow for the next few days …I apologize for that!! Have a beautiful day my friends!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and healthy!! And see you soon on Flickr!!

Chickens from the Chicken Farm Collection by JIAN {animated one digs for worms!}
È curioso che le arti figurative non tengano le uova nella dovuta considerazione. È possibile passeggiare per le sale di un grande museo senza trovare una natura morta con uova. Primeggiano di gran lunga i vegetali. Eppure la loro forma è perfetta e si presterebbero volentieri come le bottiglie a infinite composizioni.
It is curious that figurative arts do not take the eggs into consideration. You can walk around the halls of a large museum without finding a still life with eggs. Vegetables stand out by far. Yet their shape is perfect and they would like to lend themselves like bottles with infinite compositions.
(Luigi Pintor)
Chickens are in full production mode.....it's summer. :) These are the eggs for today. I love the variation in size and color.
Thanks as always for your views an comments. Be well all!
Little Egret - Egretta garzetta
The little egret (Egretta garzetta) is a species of small heron in the family Ardeidae. The genus name comes from the Provençal French Aigrette, egret a diminutive of Aigron, heron. The species epithet garzetta is from the Italian name for this bird, garzetta or sgarzetta.
It is a white bird with a slender black beak, long black legs and, in the western race, yellow feet. As an aquatic bird, it feeds in shallow water and on land, consuming a variety of small creatures. It breeds colonially, often with other species of water birds, making a platform nest of sticks in a tree, bush or reed bed. A clutch of bluish-green eggs is laid and incubated by both parents. The young fledge at about six weeks of age.
Its breeding distribution is in wetlands in warm temperate to tropical parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. A successful colonist, its range has gradually expanded north, with stable and self-sustaining populations now present in the United Kingdom.
It first appeared in the UK in significant numbers in 1989 and first bred in Dorset in 1996
In warmer locations, most birds are permanent residents; northern populations, including many European birds, migrate to Africa and southern Asia to over-winter there. The birds may also wander north in late summer after the breeding season, and their tendency to disperse may have assisted in the recent expansion of the bird's range. At one time common in Western Europe, it was hunted extensively in the 19th century to provide plumes for the decoration of hats and became locally extinct in northwestern Europe and scarce in the south. Around 1950, conservation laws were introduced in southern Europe to protect the species and their numbers began to increase. By the beginning of the 21st century the bird was breeding again in France, the Netherlands, Ireland and Britain. It has also begun to colonise the New World; it was first seen in Barbados in 1954 and first bred there in 1994. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the bird's global conservation status as being of least concern..
A resin egg from the movie Alien Resurrection (1979). This is from our collection of four eggs (egg and baby glow in the dark). If you like sci-fi movies you'll remember this little baby monster (yeah, a little creepy). The egg height with the baby is less than 3" and the wide less than 2". (Best in Large)
Thanks for your visit and taking the time to comment so I can visit your photos, too... very much appreciated! My apologies if I cannot reply to all comments. Have a great day!
This is one egg eating crow. Several times I've seen crow and other birds with eggs, which I think are turtle eggs but I'm not sure. If anyone has any information, feel free to chime in. I've seen crows hard at it digging into the ground, and I suspected that this was what they were after. Surprisingly, the egg doesn't crack in their beak, and they are able to fly with it. If anyone can also confirm my identification of this as an American Crow, Corvus brachyrhynchos, please do so. Thanks
Happy "Smile on Saturday" with "eggs-periment"!
... and thank you so much for your views, faves and comments!
Walking up to Nell and Helen's for a cup of tea and a play with the pigs involved filling my camera bag with these for the walk back.
Next to quite an expensive lens.
Worth the risk though. Yum.
Happy Easter!
Seems most appropriate for Smile on Saturday but a bit too similar to my Looking Close... on Friday entry so I did another.
An ordinary hen egg in the nest of a Grey Fantail ... it had 3 chicks so this egg is a bit big!!!
Last year I found this nest tucked away up in the roof of the woodpile shed at the farm and it stayed there throughout the year. Curious as to whether it was occupied this spring but too high up to see with a camera, I stood on a chunk of wood and reached up with my cell phone and was pleasantly surprised by what I found. :)
Saw this gem at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. They were hosting a traveling exhibit of the works of the Faberge' family.
