Myself in need of all three
Go out into your yard and see what you can see.
~First Flight
first flight
wings strong
live a long life
will be listening for your sweet song
A baby American Kestrel fledged this morning from a nesting box a neighbor has on her house.
~A River
A river flows strong and fast,
created by summer’s warmth,
boulders round and smooth,
created by years past.

Wildflowers bloom pretty and tall,
created by spring rains,
display their blooms,
through the fall.
~Mountain Meadow

dressed in summer green
a peaceful place
listen to the
delicate breeze

a day with friends
a lovely walk
uplifts the heart
I took a walk with friends in the mountains west of Loveland, and captured our experience with my camera. It was a lovely walk along the Big Thompson River.
The flowers were beautiful, the river was roaring, and the conversation wonderful. We were on a mission to find an American Dipper, but it was not to be. Next time!
Enjoy the beauty of the summer!
~Snow and record-breaking temperatures…
October 14, 2018, Loveland, Colorado
Received about three inches of snow overnight. Before daylight, woke up to the sound of a snow ploy, on our hill. Tonight will be 15F, a record low for this time of year. Spend the day inside; cooked some dried Black-eyed Peas and drank lots of hot liquids. Brrrrr!
Starting tomorrow our temperatures will be more moderate.
The birds have been flying in and out of this evergreen tree all day trying to stay warm.
The Juncos have been a challenge to capture, so no photos. Please excuse the poor quality of these bird photos, because I took them out the window.
