I have been taking breaks now and then from my yard art repainting - I began working on the cement statue of our pelican, but it will take me a week or more to finish. So, I'm taking walks...soaking up this glorious weather we've been having here-of-late. From 1] watching dolphins guide the big oil tankers out to sea, 2] finding a sure sign of Spring; a lady bug, 3] the deep sea fishermen along the channel and the sparkle of the gulf, 4] way out on the horizon a ship spraying water from the deck, 5] wildflowers in the park under mesquite trees, 6] taking out my lens ball for a snapshot of the sand dunes and oil rigs 7] viewing reflections on the park ponds, 8] and keeping the bird feeder station in our back yard filled and stocking fresh fruit for them to snack on as they have a layover on their way to the northern parts of USA and Canada, 9] taking a foot journey behind the bird basin looking for the rare plover but finding none - just yellow wildflowers by the inter-coastal waterway..











What a beautiful part of your yard this is! My other favorites are the ship shooting out the water on both sides, and your lensball shot. Beautiful yellow flowers, too..
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the photos today Ginny.
DeleteI like your bird station. I tried putting fruit out once for the birds and they didn't touch it but the ants sure loved it.
ReplyDeleteAnts here too, but the birds come in & enjoy the two-course meal...meat & fruit cup dessert.
DeleteYou've got some amazing pictures there, Anni. Wow! :-)

DeleteI thought of you today. I was repainting my art, too. I use spray paint, though! A little less technique!
