Blackbird sings

Buzzing Buzzard

I shot this picture as this Buzzard flew directly over me, and I had to track with the bird to get my shot. I had just a fraction of a second to get it. I'm happy it came out so well. There was a bit of luck involved, and thankfully my camera settings were just right.

5000 Views!

I broke 5000 views yesterday! Thank you to all of my visitors, especially all of you who keep coming back for more. I thought I should hold a reception for all of my guests, so I decided to offer you some cheese from the most wonderful little cheese shop int he world! This shop is on Grassmarket in Edinburgh, Scotland, and It's the most authentic old style cheese shop I know. The many different varieties of aged cheddar are especially tasty. Enjoy.

Garden Newt

I was digging around in a flower bed in our garden, and found this newt under the surface. He was very kind and posed fore some pictures!
