A mixed bag... some from May, others from this week and a couple from today.
1. Dusty Road, freshly washed car - doesn't make me happy.
2. Brightly coloured flowers at the garden centre - that DOES make me happy!
3. Female Oriole stealing nesting material from my balcony planter. This was taken through the glass, so not very sharp.
4. Let me out! Miss Pris getting quite worked up.
5. Fish watching me eat fish at the Chinese buffet - made me feel rather uncomfortable!
6. A chance encounter with a Snapping Turtle. They are often seen at this time of year, searching for places to lay their eggs.
7. They come by their name honestly - that neck can stretch out and take a chunk out of the unwary!
8. A face only a mother could love.
Today we set off in the rain, walked about in the rain, and drove back in the sunshine, you have to laugh. Jackhouse Reservoir at its moistest, or at least I was.
Beautiful shots that capture a mood. Even if number 3 puzzles me somewhat, beautiful.
Thanks, I have to say I have no explanation as to what the thingys with eyes are, there are two of them, the tops are actually bicycle saddles back to back. I am not sure who looks after the bit of land they are on, but there is a step over to it from the church and also a gate into the pub car park
Nefyn harbour, still has a number of working boats operating out of there.
A labyrinth spider, he's there somewhere in the morning dew.
Woodland path leading up to Carn Fadryn.
you two do get to some interesting places...wish i could come(sigh)
The most interesting place I have been today is....under Ma's sink...there were spiders there too......some dead...some still alive(aargh)

It`s not all fun and games Margaret, up at 4, out at 5 to get to Kilmarnock for 9 makes it a long day. Not complaining though, I enjoy it when I get a day release.
I'm sure the lovely scenery was a compensation.
I would have loved a job which involved travel.....though I loved being a nurse.
I used to be up just after 5 and out of the house for the 5.50 bus....just to start duty at 7.30.
We do what we have to, to earn a crust(and a bit of jam).
