I wish I could comment on every photo, but it'd take foreverrrr!
@ktc ....I just saw your lovely bluebell photo, and it made me wonder what the difference is between bluebells and bluebonnets. Thanks to google, now I know. Also, just wanted to say I love your cute bunny avatar pik and unique user name.

Trimmed up a tree near door and it opened it up, let's light in and makes such a more welcoming feeling. Then I power washed the sidewalk and cleaned siding. Also hung my flea market find, older lady made solar powered chandelier on a shepherds hook. You can see it glowing in upper left. Also planted moss roses in two little spots along wall on the right. Anyway, I walked by the door last night and peeked out and it made me smile. So much so that *click*. Not an particularly stunning photo but satisfying to me nonetheless.

Love the solar powered chandelier - so unique ! Also like the dog statue peeking out. The dog is "Red". He was my mom's and one of the few things of hers I had to have. She rescued him from somewhere (chipped corner on base) and was going to repaint him. She base coated him with primer, liked that color and he's been "Red" ever since. ♥️ I love that chandelier too. You could tell the lady was making them just for the joy of it. She told me all about it where you could get the cheapest solar lights if you wanted to do it yourself etc. And a prices reflected that cuz they're ridiculously low. I bought three; $13 for the small one you see, $15 for one I gave my eldest and $20 for a larger one for the other side of the house. Anyway, thanks for appreciating 2 of my loves.

These 2 little blue tits came to us last year. we read a tip online that drilling a hole in an old branch and filling it with bird friendly peanut butter for them to eat would help them keep still long enough to be photographed and it worked. I loved seeing them and they would also sit on our door handle and peer through the glass. Like most people I felt really scared this time last year and watching them brought a lot of comfort.

I have a wonderful aviary on my deck. My favorite are the Cardinals but I am hoping for some Baltimore Orioles to come by. The male Cardinal is on the table and you can just barely see the female at the base of the umbrella.

I’m a Thespian. Well…an Honorary Thespian. After 10 years of taking show pictures for this director (even followed him to his new school) I’ve been officially inducted into the troupe. Was totally taken by surprise. (Had I known I could’ve prepared a word and perhaps at least applied some powder and a little lip color lol)

@lettuce - beautiful flowers! I'm partial to blue & purple flowers. Since they don't grow around here, the only bluebell I ever see in in the wild is this > But oh so tasty 😋

We've had some pretty heavy rains today. After dinner the skies turned an odd shade of yellow so I went out to investigate. This is what I found! Initially I saw just the right half, but when I walked out into the street and was delighted to see the whole rainbow! Shhh...don't tell anyone but the pot of gold is behind my garage!

I drive 372 miles one way for a graduation. I work for weeks making decorations for the graduation party, we spend 10 hours plus frantically decorating for the graduation party and putting food out and what do I take pictures of?? HORSES!!! No pictures of the graduates, decorations or any family, just horses.........

This photo seriously needs a WOW, I'M AMAZED button! Beautiful and so very impossibly flexible. <3 I agree, but can we also add a NO EFFING WAY! button? The level of trust involved there blows my mind. I don't think I'd trust my husband enough for that, and I've been married to him for more than half my life. Do you watch her performances through your fingers?

A funny picture to share this time. Yesterday I was grating some eggs and made sure to use my Cut Safe glove. (The last two times I didn't and sustained injuries!) Anyway, when I finished I just tossed it into the sink. When I looked into the sink, this is what I saw. Let's just say the glove's sentiment matched the day!

How am I just now seeing this thread?? What a cool idea! This is my buddy Chex. He's a sweetie but a handful. His favorite color is teal. 🥰
