Wicked Wayback Wednesday Walk from July 12th 2016

I’m once again dipping back my archives for my wicked wayback Wednesday Walk from July 12th 2016! Here are more shots taken in our Durham, NH yard, which happens to be right next to something like 700 acres of conservation woods, and gives us a bunch of awesome and varied visitors.

I did use one of these shots for a Foto Friday post back then, but the rest of the fifteen have only been seen by our landlady and her family. At least I’m fairly certain I sent her these – it was also around the same time we went on a family vacation to Pennsylvania, which is part of the reason I never got around to posting these anywhere. However, as I’ve said a number of times before, I’ve been in the habit of emailing her the large majority of photos I take while wandering around the property, especially since she’s always so awesomely enthusiastic about my captures!

Speaking of wandering, don’t forget to wander on over to @tattoodjay‘s latest post, called Wednesday walk challenge – The Highline and Steem Basic Income Give away which features some Wayback photos of his own from the Highline park in New York City.

Now, on to my photos from July 12th 2016!

Since these are female turkeys running across our lawn, does that mean they’re late for a hen party? LOL!

While I was taking pictures of the zinnias, I noticed something dart under our front porch. Good thing I have a flash on my camera, otherwise I’d have missed this shot of Mr Toad.

One bean to rule them all! And actually I do remember that I sent these to our landlady, because she got a kick out of my caption of this random bean plant growing in her strawberry bed.

 
 
Walk from July 12th 2016
At some point during our first year here, this tree partially fell during a storm, and formed the letter Y. We figured it was a sign we’re meant to be here. And now that I’m looking at the picture again, I realize the tree isn’t all that obvious – it’s the one in the center, towards the back of the clearing.

I think I’ve been spotted!

Uh oh – looks like a storm’s rolling in (much like it is today). Time to go back inside!

 
 
Bonus picture – not the best quality, but I think this is the very first shot I got of an owl baby! It was early evening that same day – Hubby & I had heard a strange screeching noise outside, and long story short, I managed to get this shot of the curious little guy!

 
 

Happy walking & see you next week!
