Yikes, what a week.  Very glad it's Friday.  We have seen the sun a bit this week so that has been a plus at least.  I captured this image in Missouri while there for Thanksgiving.  I love watching the Blue-jays and trying to capture them.  They do not sit still very long when they are close up.  I have seen them sit for a long time far away.  They seem quite camera shy, so I count myself lucky when I can get a good shot of them.

I felt like something summery because it is just cold out and mostly dreary.  This is a Bumblebee on my Salvia from this past May.

We finally saw the sun today, a week later.  Now it will be gone again for awhile.  Sigh.  Nice while it lasted.  These are some white Asters that are on my property blooming this autumn.  Usually you see the pink/purple variety so it was nice to find these.  They are a wildflower found her in Kansas.

Posting late, sigh.  An image from the Great Bend Air Show I went to this past September.  One of my favorite WWII airplanes making a fly by of the crowd, a P51 Mustang fighter plane.

We have had such dreary weather for several days now, it's getting old.  I want to see the sun.  I decided to share something bright and colorful since it is so dreary.  This is a Monarch butterfly visiting a Zinnia flower in my garden this past summer.

Today's image goes back to a much warmer day in late May once again.  I was riding through the New Mexico landscape on the way to Colorado aboard the Cumbres & Toltec Railway.

It's the first day of December and we are having rain.  Interesting weather this autumn.  We have had more snow already this autumn then we had all last year.  I think Mother Nature is making up for our drought this summer.  I took this image during the lovely clingy snow we had in early November.  This is another view of my pond in snow with, what I thought were, some interesting reflections in the water.
