I walked the other day without my camera and missed alot of neat shots.  So I brought it with me the last two times I went.  Here are some of the results.

More Hummer fun

By RobinG written 8/19/08 7:34 PM, published 8/22/08 9:15 AM

I am having fun watching these acrobatic little guys.  They are getting ready to migrate and are eating lots more, plus there are about 8 now.  I had 3 all summer. 

 Do I have to Share?  the one on the left thinks the feeder belongs to only him.  He has a hard time sharing.  He shakes himself when he is mad.

It is funny that if I am trying to take their pictures they don't like it, but if I move to another part of the yard, they will follow me to see what I am doing.   

Have an Awesome Weekend!  Thanks for looking.  :o)

Not for the challenge

By RobinG written 8/5/08 1:17 PM, published 8/5/08 1:17 PM

Looks like the challenge is doing great. I have taken a few shots for it, but today I want to post these other shots first.  We have had hundreds of dragonfly's flying around low to the ground in the evenings.  It is crazy to stand in the middle of them and listen to them, especially when they fly into each other.  Their wings really rustle.  I waited and waited for one to land, but they never did.  Dragonflys 

 

The next morning, I was trying to take photos of the hummers when I spotted this guy!  Dragonfly

Sunday Morning Storm clouds

By RobinG written 8/4/08 12:42 PM, published 8/4/08 12:43 PM

Woke up to quite the storm yesterday morning.  It started rumbling and grumbling and when I looked out I saw these neat cloud formations.  Before the rain hit, I grabbed the camera and took some shots.  I even stood out under the eaves and waited for some lightening, finally got one.

I saw this reflection of the trees and thouught of the challenge.   Tree Reflections 

 Last night my family were all out doing their things, so I took myself to the Elk Park, it was an enjoyable evening.  Not happy with the photos I took, but I still had a nice time.   This is the first view when you  come into the park, it is so pretty.   Tree with Lake 

Thanks for looking, hope you are having a nice weekend.  :o)

Challenge ~ Trees

By RobinG written 8/1/08 2:23 PM, published 8/1/08 2:23 PM

My contribution to the challenge.  I have a green apple tree.  Its only about 12 years old and hasn't had lots of apples in the past.  This year it has gone crazy. I am guessing to the over abundance of water we have had.  Although I am noticing this week the leaves are turning brown and falling off.  Hope it will survive.  Here are some shots of it.

This little one was only 4 days old when I was there.  It was so cute.  I took way too many photos.  Someday I will make it thru them, along with the ones I took in Nv.  I am so behind at work, home and with my photos.
