Long-Dangerous Tails

Morning Light is my favorite

Focus on the stamen:

Focus on the far petals:

Red Tail Hawk– not bad for only 200 mm lens

Don’t know if you can see this, but there is a TINY spider on a very thin web

This is Chopper’s new boyfriend, Justin (Malagolds). Whenever they are together all they do is French kiss. He’s a bit dense, as you can see he ran into a glass door and biffed up his nose.

On Sunday night, I came back from Chopper’s long walk to find that Coke ate an entire box (6 months) of Interceptor. I panicked, tossed him in the car, flew to the grocery store, got the hydrogen peroxide, and poured it down his throat in the parking lot. He threw up his dinner and lots of packaging. I called the e-vet and they said he would be fine because he is so big. Better safe than sorry I guess! Today he went to dog daycare and grooming. Say goodbye to the lovely coat.

This is a fern I dug up from the woods and moved into my shade garden

Leaves from two different sports of Hostas

Two varieties of Japanese Iris:


German Bearded Iris

This seems too exotic to be growing in Michigan

My obsession with water drops continues.

This one came out so friggin cool! You can see the building and landscaping ON the water drop!
