April 27, 2011 - Day 31


The people in the house love thunderstorms, but I guess the animals don't. The dog is in the shower and the cat is curled up with "Pet" the bunny.

April 13, 2011 - Day 17


Today I giggled myself silly at the farm up the road. It was nice to go by myself and take a little time to really interact with the animals. This cow was hamming it up for my camera. I only had to wait next to her for a few minutes for her to loosen up. I have never said this before and may never again....that was one awesome cow.

I couldn't believe that I actually caught this on camera. It was only there for about 20 seconds. It is not blue...it's a green flame.

April 10, 2011 - Day 14

Last night my camera fell off a table. It shattered the filter on the front. I started taking pics this morning to make sure it still worked and I had a VERY patient subject.  A lesson of spring...this bird is looking at my clean windows and attacking the evil bird reflection.





After an hour and a half the bird is still at it, the cat finally noticed and my camera battery finally quit.
