The Barn

Took this photo near where my daughter has her bee hives.....just such a typical photo of some of the old buildings/barns around the area.

photo of the day....

Recently came back from a trip to the Prairies - what a beautiful place it can be.

 

Thought this photo was great - the shadow of the dragon fly against the

cracked paint of the barn !

 

Will upload more as  I go through my 500 pictures !

Hummingbird

The birds are fighting over the feeders in the yard.

and now - with my goldfish plant.

Love watching them !!!

Last Year....

Went out to the prairies again as I have been doing the last few years.  Here are a few pics from that trip.

Came across a quilting show in the city park in Moose Jaw - was a bit surreal actually.....all the quilts were strung between the trees ....

This was taken after an adventure with tics - now that's another story - but I played abit with  the colours as you can tell.  Beautiful Canola field

And my love of graveyards, for any of those who are following me - there are so many out on the prairies - this huge cross was in the middle of one little graveyard in the middle of nowhere.

Again - this was taken at a different graveyard - the sun shining through the barren tree.

Who'dat?

I love this shot !!!  not sure why but just one of my recent favourites !!!!

Whats in your backyard?

Just sitting on the back patio last nite - and all this (and more) is what I can see.
Do hope to get a better one of the Bald Eagle this year !!!

Hello Hello

 

Well a recent trip to Beacon Hill Park in Victoria, BC we came across this guy wandering around.  Had the most beautiful plumage.

 

Was hoping he would show us the whole array, but alas....I just chased him around trying to get a good photo !!

 

Such beautiful plumage !!!
