It's our Thanksgiving day here is the US. I have had this photo ready to go since April since I thought it fairly appropriate for the day. I called these guys "The Gang" as they always seemed to be together and strutting their stuff for the ladies. 😁 I haven't seen any Turkeys around for a few weeks now. I always wonder where they hang out in the winter.
It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! My flower for today is Stenosiphon. It's in the Evening Primrose family and usually blooms July through September. I found this one in the second week of September. In drought, this plant will drop it's leaves and conduct photosynthesis through the stem. They can grow to 9 feet tall.
It's a double digit day today! 😁 Early this year, during the winter, I was able to capture various pictures of Cardinals. They can be difficult as they don't sit still very often. This is a male that I was able to get and I liked it because of the way it appeared to be looking at me.
Happy Monday and happy new week! Starting off the week with a photo of my Gladiola stalk from this summer. I liked the painterly background that the Surprise Lilies were giving to it.
It's Steamy Sunday here on the Blog! Today's image goes back to May of this year when I was running trains on my new raised layout. I can't believe I only did that twice this year, where does the time go. SIGH Anyway, this is my Accucraft Shay steaming along with it's train. Looking forward to running trains again next year.
I was riding my bike to dinner a few Friday's ago and decided to stop and take a photo of the autumn colors along the Smoky Hill River. As I was taking my images I was, ironically, photobombed by a Heron that decided to fly across the river. So, I captured a Heron as I most often do, in flight, away from me. 😏
It's Friday, TGIF! I felt like an autumn type image today. Most of the leaves are now off the trees and I have been trying to clean a lot of them up. This is an image of some of my Amur Maple leaves in late afternoon light. I liked the bokeh behind created by other trees and leaves which included my favorite bubbly bokeh. Sharing this for today because Friday's Are Bokehlicious!
