“A wise old owl lived in an oak;
The more he saw the less he spoke;
The less he spoke the more he heard...
Why can't we all be like that bird?”
― Edward Hersey Richards
Between the mainland and Padre Island the open waterway is called LAGUNA MADRE *pronounced la GOON ah MAH dray [in English: Mother Lagoon] The piece of land near the top right horizon is Padre Island.
How beautiful! I love all those wildflowers and I especially love how you did the before and after. Awesome! Have a fabululous day, Anni! And Thank you for always stopping by and leaving your comments! I love hearing from you! Debbie's Travels
Beautiful shots!!! I love that name, Laguna Madre. I am in east Texas and have never been to Padre Island. I seriously think I will pack up my camera and head that way this summer. Have a great day!
Hi Anni ... wow! Breathtakingly beautiful. Postcards or framed prints that sell for hundreds! I wish that I was there to see everything in person. I also really liked the pelican photos, and your background/header (I saw them the other day, but I don't think that I told you.)
I appreciate you stopping by to visit. Have a great rest of the week!
Ooooh, such wonderful patches of wildflowers!! I can't wait to see flowers growing around here. Actually the snow finally melted from where my flowerbeds are at the front of the house and I have tulips, crocuses and daffodils coming up about 3 inches! Woohoo! lol Now if the rest of the snow would melt I'd be all set:-) xoxo
Absolutely stunning my friend. I love wild flowers :)

ReplyDeleteMiriam Thank you for your comment...I had to go translate it:
ReplyDelete"I loved these photos, in special the third one, with his yellow florzinhas and the waves to the bottom"
The combination of my two favorite things, water and yellow flowers, makes this superb.
