Happy Spring, New England! To celebrate the rumored arrival of spring yesterday, as well as the fourth Nor'easter in three weeks due to hit my area later today , I decided to finally post some of my shots from Nor'easter Number Three. Fair warning - there's a bunch of bluebird pictures again (different from the... Continue Reading →
Some of my Turkey Vulture photos – the most gorgeous ugly bird ever!
A few days ago over on Steemit, I posted a picture of a hawk that stopped in for a visit, and another Steemian mentioned she loved Turkey Vultures. Well, as many of you know, it just so happens I've had more than a few visits from these Golden Purifiers, and I told her I'd put... Continue Reading →
Beautiful bluebirds beat boring blizzard
A little while ago, I started looking through the over 600 shots I've taken of this "third time's the charm... NOT" blizzard that dropped 25.5in/64.7cm on our part of New Hampshire. However, after a short time of staring at nothing but white, I happened to look up from my computer desk, and the most gorgeously... Continue Reading →
Small selection of Sunday shots (some silly)
Happy Sunday afternoon from my snow-covered corner of the world! Earlier today, I had the chance to spend some time outside in the yard with my camera and tripod (and some inside my warm house in front of a window), and thought I'd share a small selection of them. Okay, so maybe getting up an... Continue Reading →
Another day, another blizzard
[Originally posted on Steemit earlier today] While we escaped the brunt of the Nor'easter on March 3rd in my corner of the New England (lots of strong winds & rain to be sure, but little to no snow), the one that started on Wednesday the 7th into Thursday the 8th made up for it. When... Continue Reading →
My Collection of Heart-Shaped Photos
[Originally posted on Steemit earlier today] Just over a week ago, I noticed a post by @thekittygirl called, Heart-Shaped Photos, in which she shared her amazing collection of heart photos (the first one in particular got me right in the feels!). She mentioned she got the idea from @dflo's also wicked amazing post, My heart... Continue Reading →
Pictures of the Full Crow Moon in Virgo from March 1st 2018
Last night (March 1st) at 7:51pm EST, the Full Worm Moon appeared in the sky. However, while "Worm" appears to be the more popular moniker, I much prefer to call it the Full Crow Moon - From - The Farmers' Almanac website. As the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm... Continue Reading →
Mostly Wordless Wednesday – Birds birds, birds, and the moon
As I mentioned in a few places today, I'm a bit one-handed at the moment ... Therefore, I'm being lazy and not captioning each photo. These were all taken in my Durham, NH yard between February 7th and February 28th, 2018. As always, I used my trusty Nikon and tripod (both are Amazon affiliate links,... Continue Reading →
Bacon? It’s what’s for dinner, thanks to Jaynie from Steemit
A couple days ago, I caught the post On the MENU tonight... BACON wrapped CHICKEN... YUM by Jaynie on Steemit. While it was an intensely complicated wicked simple recipe, I decided to give it a go for dinner tonight. I also decided to be a bit cheeky, and did my own take on it. While... Continue Reading →
More snow? BOO! More pictures? YAY! Some from NIGHT and some from DAY!
Yeah, I have no idea why the title came out of my brain that way... LOL! Just as the weatherman predicted, temps around here hovered around 70F/21C on Wednesday,and melted all the snow we got on Sunday. Apparently, that annoyed Mother Nature to no end, so she hit us with another (albeit, much smaller) storm... Continue Reading →
Second set of snapshots from a snowy Sunday in New Hampshire
Here's the second set of snapshots from a snowy Sunday in New Hampshire - say that three times fast. LOL! By popular demand (because two people asking means I'm popular, right?) I'm back with more of the over 200 shots I took on Sunday. For what it's worth, now almost all the snow is completely... Continue Reading →
Snowy Slightly Silent Sunday in New Hampshire
It snowed overnight. The local forecast says on Wednesday, it might reach 70F/21C. What else can I say? 😜 Oh, how about all of these shots were taken in my Durham, NH yard this morning (8am-ish EST) with my trusty Nikon. Last thing (see why I said "slightly" silent - LOL) - this is just... Continue Reading →
