It’s nice to enjoy the simple beauty that lies right in our yards and gardens. The simple colors and their blending with other simple colors and shades can be habit forming for our senses. This can easily make for a pleasing and calming environment to enjoy with a cool summer drink and conversation perhaps. It doesn’t take a lot to please my senses. I really do look and strive for ways for me to
“Keep It Simple.” It’s often not easy to adapt to an alternative happiness to the version that we’ve had forced on us so early in life by advertising and marketing majors. A happiness defined by large, expensive or complicated products. Is that your happiness? Thanks for viewing my work. Gratitude and kindness are concepts should please us all.
Today is my dad's birthday...he died many years ago but he left me with his love for nature...all things wild and untamed. We found a baby quail one day when we were hiking in the summer. It had been blown away from its brood .. .must have been days old. He let me scoop it up and try to keep it alive. I could not do so, but I loved trying and felt instantly connected to the unending grasp that wildlife would have over me ...something that has never left...thanks, dad
thanks always for stopping by to visit and share....risa

"Through the Veil "
High up in the wilderness of the Wicklow Mountains, the first light of dawn moves along the horizon, on the first day of January, 2017.
Taken from the slopes of Tonelagee Mtn at 600m.

Update 9/1/ 17
You will notice that I havent written my usual stuff with this photo. I think its beyond that for me. You would have to go up there and seen it happening to comprehend what it does to your senses. { Er....I changed my mind...again!!! }
I took this photo at dawn from the side of Tonalgee { " Ass to the wind" } Mountain at 600m. A wild, boggy and isolated place but with its own unique beauty which draws some of us crazy people like a magnet!
I think the shape of the light flaring out from the sun behind the ridge line which was changing by the second, is something to behold. I did wonder, as I looked at it if there was a place between the light and the dark where you could stand and. what would it do to your mind.
Then I realised I was standing, up to my knees in freezing bog water and I could hear the red grouse calling out to one another in the darkness and probably saying " Whose yer man with the camera. Bejaysus wouldnt you imagine he`d get sense and go home! { They were Irish red grouses obviously! Lol! } Anyway, I ended up breaking into a fit of laughter at the thought of it so the moment was gone and I got quickly out of there.
Im very pleased with it as I think its very different but my honest friends on Flickr have ways of letting me know whether they like it like I do! Pat.
UPDATE 1/1 2017
AS it is New Year, I just wanted to remember our two good friends that we lost during 2017. Firstly my good friend, the Birdman, Steve-h from Dublin who took such amazing bird studies in St Stephens Green. A master and a true gentlemen who still inspires me and I keep all his wonderful stories with me always! Heres to you Steve!
And secondly but by no means in that order, our larger than life friend Richard Gregory. A wonderful photographer wth a zany sense of humor who took the P out of me constantly and me out of him. How many people can you actually do that with without causing offence? Very few and only those that you truly like and admire. Gone but not forgotten "and no I dont want to hear your latest Irish joke, Richard!! Oh! ok then, seeing as its yerself but Ill get you later!!! "
If you scroll down the page they are both on it here
and with all of us too!

I'm sure he/she was as happy to see me back as I was:)
They almost announce themselves with a distinct sound, so I look around. This guy stayed up high on that tree branch.
Thanks for looking, etc.
Keep safe:)
Bird Species in conflict # 9
Kingbirds can be very aggressive around their nesting sites. I have been dive-bombed by them myself. They aren’t called Tyrannus tyrannus for nothing.
This is from 2019. Since it fits my theme well, I decided to re-post it with a few new processing tweaks, and I wanted another two species in this series. The Red-tailed Hawk did keep moving along.
I live a thoroughly enjoyable life :)

Inspired By the song : THE CLIMB
(MILEY CYRUS)
I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's The Climb
The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I mean I know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
