An Afternoon at Longwood Gardens

What better way to spend a pleasant summer afternoon?

I Like

I confess, I adore purple coneflowers! Planted a bunch in my front garden - this is just one of many flowers.

Thief!

Any suggestions on how to (kindly) discourage the little guy? I wouldn't mind, but he's such a pig!

Happy Holidays!

My parrot Toby and I wish you all the happiest of whatever holiday you celebrate, and the best of good fortune in the New Year!

Hoare Abbey (Ireland)

At last!

I adore these little cleaner shrimp, and they are all of about 3/4 of an inch long. Needless to say, getting a decent shot is extremely difficult, so I was…

Life on a Coral Reef - Part 2

A few more underwater photos from Bonaire.

Watching the Sun Set Over the Caribbean

Sigh. I want to go back to Bonaire!

Different Fish???

Nope! All the same species. This is a Stoplight Parrotfish, the first three photos are Terminal Phase, the last three photos are Initial Phase. All Stoplight…

Caribbean Sunset

Walking on Water....

Easily do-able, if you're a pelican! Hope all my PB friends are doing well, can't wait to see what you've all been up to! I've had 3 weeks of vacation in the…
