Learning 

A good way to get rid of that winter hair.

I was fully prepared for the Full Moon last night. I missed some early shots, because I ignored my ears popping...lol When the weather changes, my ears pop. If I step out when my ears pop, I am sure to get something kool...

Purple Petunias just add purple rain.

In my backyard.

From the top of Lookout Mountain, you can see the Denver Metro Area, including downtown.

The grass is just barely coming up and these guys just can't get enough of it. This is right in the middle of town. Kittredge, CO.

The Aurora spilling out as if one had over filled the

I can always count on this place to provide a nice image or two.

...spotted this baby bunny nesting in the grass just in time as I was mowing the lawn. I have been told they are called a bunny,kit,kitten and if a yearling, a leveret.

trees eroded from the banks, and a variety of other flotsam.

Mama knows not to be playing in the street. Especially when that street is 2 blocks from a High School. Mama had a busy morning keeping all the kits in line.

They just love to play fight.

As dog "models" go, Bailey is the best, and doesn't seem to mind how many pictures I take of her. She is so pretty, they all turn out well!:-) I may not want to let her go home Tuesday! I'm getting very attached to this cutie!

beautiful light this evening

4 inches of new snow gave Izzy a new look!

All five barn cats showed up for dinner, but were very aware when I showed up with my camera. At least they didn't run off, as they do sometimes, so I could take this shot.

Perfect day for some paddling.

Molly enjoying being outside almost all day--no mud!

In or out kitteh? In or out? She loves this game, lol. Just sits in the doorway...

The livestock around here seems pretty happy that the grass in finally turning green! I am, too!:-)

The neighboring farm to the horse rescue have several Alpacas. This one posed for the camera nicely.

Too cute!

Molly in sunglasses

This is what that means. One of our dogs, Jack, with his belly wet from playing around in the irrigation ditches has had enough. He's out like a light.

Hope yours is as well! The rhododendrons are in full bloom.

Found a male, female, nest and 3 chicks. In a tree overhanging the La Jolla Cove.

Red panda yawns in the lazy warm afternoon.

Went back to the College Campus today to check on the Swans, only two of the four eggs hatched. They are five days old and so cute!

Beautiful display of Apple Blossoms this year. Glad I trimmed up the Apple Trees last Autumn, going to be a good crop this year.

In Somerset, a coal train is in the process of taking on a load of coal. The coal mines may not be pretty, but they sure do keep a lot of families in Delta Country fed and housed. Not much else to do around here.

Double rainbow right outside my door, practically! We had a 5 minute break between storms last night and it produced these lovely rainbows.

these little ones are in almost constant motion

For a friend who gave me the inspiration for the title.

Not even as tall as the grass (and weeds) around him, this guy and his sibling are already on their own. I tried to get a picture outside, but any little movement makes them run. It's what they have to do to survive. So I went inside and took the screen off the window and cranked it open (which made him hide), but finally he came out an I got him! You could hold both of them in the palm of one hand. Too cute!

Yosemite Falls is the highest waterfall in North America at 2,425 feet. The wind came up in the afternoon causing the falling water to fan out. The cars in the foreground help to give perspective to the height of the falls.

We walked down in the park, Brooke stopped and rested at every shade we came to :)

...from a sweet fox kit!

I went back this morning to spy on the fox pups. One was quite bold as long as I stayed very still.

Brooke, taking a break from our walk.

Our second mule named Blue so we call him BlueToo! His hair is so soft it is like fur and he is a real sweetheart!

A single boat on the lake

bankshot, corner pocket

Three of the four dogs rest in the shade after a long "work" day, and obviously a dirty one at that! Actually, it's from swimming and then rolling in the dusty dirt. Dogs have weird hobbies, but they sur do have fun.:-)

My recent AC was a female Rufous. This male Rufous showed up yesterday and I spent several hours trying to get him in the blooms between the feeder. This little jewels travel over 2,500 miles from their winter ground across the gulf of mexico to Canada/Alaska. I hope he hangs around a few days.

Overlooking a gorgeous shoreline at Julia Pfeiffer State Park.

The Robin I found nesting on June 27, 2011 now has 2 babies in her nest.

Well, actually a back country dirt road but I was amazed at how it is line with flowers; God's on design. Ant Flats, Utah

Tonight's sunset was quite a show before the sun disappeared in the marine layer.

Taken today.

.......today in the N-E of the Netherlands

I had to step in the street to get this pic. I took my life into my hands. Thankfully Traffic stopped for me.

On old Route 66 in Prewitt, NM

One of my favorite hikes for photos!

These pictures of tall ships were taken during the annual Duluth Music and Maritime Festival July 2011

At Arches National Park

How could you not love a young white tailed deer in the midst of field of white daisies? Love You!

A fertilizer spreader that is now a planter. I like it better now that it's retired. There is a very young apple tree behind it, and it has lots of apples.

The young female barn cat sitting in the doorway of the barn to catch the breeze, I think.

We got lots of rabbits

There are so many of them, they have to hang on by their toes.

There are 3 Blue Spruce and a lot of flowers in the huge rock planter Bud built out front to block the view of the neighbor's ugly plastic greenhouses. It took a while to build it, fill it with dirt and get it planted, but it's starting to look great!

The brother in laws pride and joy

Repaired

I was awake early in the morning when I noticed skies were crystal clear. So, I decided to go out and take a few shoots of the crescent moon. By chance, I happened to notice Mars nearby as well so I made sure to get them both in one shot (even though I couldn't see it with my naked eye by that point).

In Pescadero State Beach

Rain still falls on the Florida Mountains near Deming, NM even as the small arroyos are already receding. Monsoon brought us almost 2 inches of rain.. unfortunately it did it all in 25 minutes on Sunday night, with gale force winds and hail. Even during the deluge, the sun never quite shining on the west side of our house!

Looking northwest from the trail to Fremont Lookout. Mt Rainier National Park, WA

Mammoth Lakes, CA

I had to have a panoramic view of this awesome sunset with the wonderful sun rays. So I took two separate photos and married them.

At the Milwaukee Zoo. He looked quite comfortable for such a hot day.
