I snapped these at the grocery store the other day. We were on our way into the mall and the noise from chirping birds was overwhelming. I started looking around to see where it was coming from, and was surprised to find they had congregated on top of the shopping carts. These don’t give the full effect because as I got close enough to snap the picture, most of them flew away. :)

Have a great first weekend of 2010!

One of my favorite ways to relax and slow down is to sit by the river and watch the ducks. Depending on what time of day you’re there you can almost forget that this spot is right in the middle of the downtown area.

Have an amazing day!

Since I’m not quite ready to brave the snow and cold yet this morning, today’s pics come from the handy-dandy archives. :)

I snapped these last summer at the golf course. I learned early on to make sure to always have the camera ready because you never knew what you would see on the sidelines.

As a mother, I know all about wanting to protect your babies, and watching this mother duck was really interesting. She worked really hard the whole time we were there to keep her baby hidden. It wasn’t until they got out into the middle of the pond that we could actually see the baby.
