Garden Tender

Rare sighting of a gnome tending his garden.  

Nature

When you stumble upon a gummy bear in its native habitat enjoying a scenic vista.  

Honkers

More from the park.  Young goslings on land and older goslings in the pond.  Babies everywhere!

Duckies

When we weren't at the reunion, we spent some time wandering around the Alexandria area.  We found a tiny park with a big pond and there were ducklings and goslings everywhere!  I don't think I've ever seen so many babies in one place before.  And all different ages too.

Prim and Proper Purple

As I've been walking around the neighborhood gathering flower pictures, several of them have been of irises.  I was going to do an iris collage, but I like the pictures so much that I'm going to do 7 days of iris blogs instead.   

(I wish the pixel quality was as good online as it is when I'm looking at my computer.)
