I am always in amazement of the water repellent properties of some leaves. Walking back home in the rain yesterday, I spotted this leaf with a nice row of droplets.

Taken the same day as my recent post, Stairway to Heaven, at the same place. Here I was about to walk down the steps, and someone was coming up with their dog on a leash. I clicked the shutter as the dog was just appearing.

Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
I get a deep sense of inner peace when I see a beautiful bird such as this roseate spoonbill feeding and preening in a glassy surfaced lagoon, bathed in early morning light.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks for your views and comments!

A large family of Water Smartweed (Polygonum amphibium) basks in a calm shoreline, sending its pink spires skyward. As the scientific name suggests, it is one of few plants which has adapted to both land and water environments.
This photograph was taken from the Lower Seletar Reservoir Heritage Bridge looking towards the Orchid Country Club at sunrise.
It was a slightly breezy morning, with some movements of the reservoir surface. The sun has arisen above the vegetation and appeared brightly while the sun was captured as a sunstar. The various slowly drifting clouds were illuminated differently and provided contrasting colours and shapes to the beautiful landscape.
Best wishes for a relaxing weekend!

Florida’s Eastern Meadowlark (Sturnella magna) is a songbird found throughout rural areas of Florida. Its breeding range covers most of eastern North America and parts of South America. Experts say it is difficult to distinguish between the Eastern and Western species as it can be determined only by voice and location. Seventeen subspecies of the Eastern Meadowlark are documented.
Actually, the meadowlark is not a lark at all. It is a member of the blackbird family (Icteridae) which also includes cowbirds and orioles. Meadowlarks are easily identified by the bright yellow throat and belly. However, the most distinguishing mark in adults is the black “V” on its chest. It can often be seen on a fence post belting out its clear, melodious songs and whistles.
Adult birds weigh just over five ounces, are seven to ten inches tall with a wingspan of 14 to 16 inches. Both sexes are similar in size, although females are normally smaller with a shorter wingspan.
This bird prefers grassy fields, pastures, cultivated fields, golf courses and other open habitats. It is a good friend to the farmer/rancher and a bug-eating machine. Insects comprise more than 75 percent of its diet, with grains and seeds making up the balance. It is especially fond of grasshoppers and crickets, as well as insect larvae and grubs. It feeds on the ground, picking insects from the surface or probing the soil to reveal its prey. Meadowlarks also eat the seeds of many weeds.
I found this one along Joe Overstreet Road with three differnt insects (bugs) in its beak!
