The other day early in the morning we had some bird visitors in the road in front of the house.
I grabbed the camera and I was able to get a few good shots before they spotted me.
The great white Egret stands tall amongst the weeds in the ditch. The white ibis including some brown juveniles flying all around. It was fun to watch them.
I love mornings like this when the wildlife surrounds us and allows me to take its picture.
This great blue heron was on the road.
It is probably the same one that use to stalk our koi/goldfish pond before we netted it.
I was able to get a few pics before he spotted me.
I love looking across a pasture and seeing animals being carefree. These horses belong to our daughter’s neighbors.
They love to roll in the dirt and mud just like all other horses and cows.
I try and get a few pictures of them when I can and on this day they were happy eating and posing.
Nature’s beauty is all around for us to take a minute to relax and enjoy.
I see quite a few butterflies when I am watering everyday but I don’t always get to capture them on camera.
These two stayed long enough for me to go in the house and get my camera. These were actually shot two different days.
Take the time each day to notice the beauty all around and enjoy the view nature has provided for us all.
Good morning to the morning glory vine and flowers.
This flowering vine really puts on a show.
My sister gave me this one and it is in a pot but and I have it wrapped around a small oak tree.
It is one of the first things I see in the morning when I step out the back porch.
Sometimes it is the little things that can put a smile on your face in the morning.
This beautiful succulent is called Purslane or Portulaca.
It is an annual it works well in pots or planted in a flower bed.
The flowers bloom like crazy as long as the sun is shining but they close up every evening.
This plant is a good bang for the buck for instant, fast-growing color.
