We saw this optical delight last night about 7PM as the sun was setting. Someone is smiling on us!

Indigo Bunting...

Meg snapped this new addition to our local bird population. He's a beautiful color but seems to be carrying a bit of a beer belly!

Sittin' Pretty...

This guy did not seem flattered or even amused that I wanted his picture. He did sign the consent form though...

Bountiful Hosta...

Every year I'm astonished at the way the hosta burst forth and reach for the sun. This fellow was digging the late afternoon sun yesterday.

Moonset...

Dark beatiful moonset tonight...

Bright lady...

Found a couple of these guys (gals?) on the rugosa roses yesterday. Their color seems almost too vibrant for their surroundings!

Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes...

Live Music is Better. Bumper Stickers Should Be Issued. Looking forward to seeing Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes tomorrow night.

Serene Sunday Sunset...

It was a shockingly drab day today that surprised me with a very colorful finish...

Flicker...

We have a pair of Flickers drilling out a nest nearby. They are shy and don't tolerate people well which makes me covet a real telephoto lens...

More Crocuses...

Tried for a soft telephoto kind of look here. I've been playing with some black and white conversion programs and couldn't help myself.

This gnarled old tree still seems to enjoy the first rays of the sun.

Early Crocus...

These early crocus - our first this year - are truly a spot of color and beauty in a very slow moving spring season here in VT.

Dog Chapel

We visited Stephen Huneck's Dog Chapel in St. Johnsbury today. It sounds a little strange - a chapel devoted to dogs (and cats) but it is incredibly lovely and heartwarming. Here is a shot of some dogs outside the chapel.
