Happy Tuesday!
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is Planes, trains and automobiles. And of course who is the best one in the field of « Planes, trains and automobiles »? Mr. Teddy Bear of course !! And it is very convenient to have Mr. Teddy Bear with us, since we celebrate Happy Teddy Bear Tuesdays.
I was thinking a lot about this week’s theme: Planes, trains and automobiles. As we all know, I’m the worst driver ever and I hate driving (I will easily walk for hours, in my stilettos, during a snowstorm than driving a car by myself…). !! And this applies for trains, planes and other automobiles in general. But then, I remember that Mr. Teddy had a passion for trains. He has few trains in his collection and this one is truly special ; it is a flying train ! And if I remember right: we never had a flying train on this Photostream !! So all aboard the flying train !!
Unfortunately, I have another video meeting this morning so I will not be able to go with you … But dont you worry, I’m sure Mr. Teddy Bear will take me after work !
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! And see you soon !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a black and white day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate Sliders Sunday. Since we went apple picking yesterday, I decided to go with a flying apple. Strangely enough we never had a flying apple on this photostream. And I’m not talking about levitating apples ! I’m talking about an actual apple with wings and flying… I’m truly surprised but then again my gin and tonic soaked memory is … well…soaked in gin and tonic. So without any further delay: flying apple. Be carful, not to get hit by this flying apple !!
When an apple hits you in the head you might feel a little bit disoriented or lost for a while, some hurtful childhood memories may resurface. I'm talking from personal experience...once my son hit me with an apple by accident since his abilities to throw something at a moving target with success are as good as mine… It felt like I almost got a concussion !!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! And see you soon !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
It was a wonderfully peaceful and foggy morning at the pond in Troy NY's Oakwood Cemetery.
Image right out of camera except for a slight reduction in color temp. and a little dodging.
A head on collision would of occurred here but their quick response time and flying skills had them bank to one side to avoid the head on collision.
Low flying Heron at Hamwall RSPB Nature Reserve earlier today. The Glossy Ibis were about as well as Kingfisher, Egreats (great and small) but all at a distance. Good company though and between the heavy showers there was plenty of sunshine.

The little flying squirrels come out as soon as it gets dark. They are quick and I love watching them. Most entertaining.
