it turned out there were people in my neighbors' yard.

I am back from our beach vacation! I took a few of my dolls along, and wanted to take pictures of one or two of my girls on the beach, but I procrastinated, and then it was windy and blowing sand the last 5 days we were there. :( Ah well- next time for sure!

At least I got some pictures of Bailey by the pool- and my in laws were very nice and didn't treat me like a weirdo for bringing my dolls on vacation. haha

I have so many things to catch up on, and I can't wait to see all the photos you guys have uploaded in my absence! :)

RSPB Green status list.

All fluffed up for quick sunbathe this robin appeared to be really enjoying it even though it was very hot in the sheltered area where he was.

‘Sunbathing’ is used by some birds as part of their routine feather maintenance and is most commonly seen by Garden BirdWatchers in Blackbirds and Robins. The birds invariably adopt a posture in which the body feathers are fluffed up and one or both wings are held out from the body, with feathers spread. It is thought that using the sun in this way does two things. It both helps the preen oil to spread across the feathers and drives parasites out from within the plumage. Some of these parasites feed on the feathers themselves and all are highly specialised, with many only found on a single species of bird.

Locomotive Services Limited Class 90, 90002 "Wolf of Badenoch" sunbathes outside Crewe Diesel Depot along with its rake of InterCity-liveried Mk3s.

Meanwhile behind it the Midland Pullman HST (with power car 43055 at this end) has just arrived back at base on 5Z64 12:54 Eastleigh Works to Crewe Holding Sidings, having worked the Cornish Coastal Pullman the previous day.

This was done after the hearts and before the balloons. It isn't quite my favorite and I am not proud of it but ... someone might like it.

Anyhow, I took a girl sitting on a stool and put her in a tree, then I added a butterfly wing. Changed the hue of her dress and blurred the background. Vignetted.

I found this guy while walking through a small and preserved forest. It didn't move until i got really close to it.

After I'd finished scanning the sunbathing photo of my Mom in the 1960s (see below the fold), I pulled the photo out of the scanner and found there were two photos in my hand. This one had been stuck to the other.

I think they're really cute of her. She would have been about 16, almost 17 years old..

Sunbather...

.. but right alongside her litter tray!
