Cool Images

I’m coming clean. Back in the day, when I worked in Corporate America, I was a judger. When I walked up to a co-workers cubicle,I tried to refrain from judging. But, sometimes my mind slipped and I would think, “enough already with the kid… Continue Reading “Cool Images”

Sing ME A Song

The weather had been lovely, including sun and warmth that is higher than normal for December. The rain arrived today, but I was still able to capture some pretty birds over the past few, extraordinary days. These little birds are Song Sparrows. They are… Continue Reading “Sing ME A Song”

Snap. Snap. Snap. Three images. A juvenile White-crowned Sparrow has sights on a different branch. The Mockingbird seems oblivious to his travels.
