I was surprised and happy to see ducks moving across our pond yesterday. I quickly pulled out my camera to capture a few images (albeit with back-lighting from the late afternoon sun.) I wasn’t expecting what I saw. As they lifted their heads out… Continue Reading “What A Schnoz!”

A Last Minute Gift

My office-patio rose bush has granted me a final, few roses for the season. Blooming brilliantly next to the lovely autumn colored rose hips which are adorned with fall spider webs, the red flower pops.
