A cold front approaches. It’s another gray day, everything looks bland.
The cranes came , did a rain dance. We are in need of moisture. The heron was MIA in her nest for 4 hours, maybe she was fishing. The nest is filling out slowly.
She did come back in early afternoon. A pair of ibis came foraging for food.
and a pied-billed grebe came by and dove under the water when he saw me.
They are funny looking.
I tried my hand at macro, but wind was blowing and the focus was almost impossible. But did get a few pics in to show. So here’s a few…
Someone told me that those are some sort of beetles mating and not lady bugs.
Ringo the heron and I fished, but the wind was whipping and the drizzling rain was getting cold and miserable, so I had to come in. The heron was in her nest and it was waving in the wind. Ringo came to the back door and decided to come in and dry off.
Right now Frankie is in my lap and my legs have lost all circulation,
ugh, I must get up and move. Oh, I was looking at my match holder and realized I must get a chimney sweep to clean out the fireplace.
For now, that’s it, and I’m sending a rose to Tabbie to let her know I am thinking about her and hope she is feeling better.
And here’s a video from Tampa, a bit shaky, but hope you enjoy anyway…




Then comes the reward, spending time wth the kids! First thing I do is drive to the Publix where my son’s office is and get goodies to surprise them with for dinner.
I don’t mind cooking when I am here because these two are so busy, they eat on the run. Then in between, I get to take pictures of the wildlife here.




And of course the big tank inside is always great to enjoy.

In the afternoon the cows on Valhalla Pond were roaming the land and one cow was close by all by himself in the water.


So for now,I am here and enjoying chillin’ and working along side Aaron, we are always trying to figure out how to make our millions, it would be great leaving my kids a fortune! Oh well, for now all I have to give them is all my love and a room full of frames and loose nature photographs and hope they have futures bright and full of happiness and love just like I have had, it’s worked for me …
