Some of the late-blooming flora (or in various other stages) and fauna, living woodland and lakeside, that I discovered on my mountainside morning walk of a few days ago. I do not know the names of any of the flowers; I acknowledge them and appreciate them for what they are apart from their identity.
The only way I even saw this frog, as he blended in so thoroughly with it's surroundings, is because it hopped right in front of me! The photo below this one depicts a different frog but the same scenario.
I was so energized by the time I got home from that morning's explorations, that I wanted and needed to be up on our 'own' mountain right in the backyard. Making my way up top on the stone stairway, I came across this beauty.
...and this cave.....
And then I noticed this. WHAT THE F**K??!! and HOW THE F**K??!!
...hold on a minute.... I needed a closer look..........
Further investigation, and..... ah-HA!
Amazing what you can find in your own back yard..... there's no place like home!
I get excited each time I see there is a new posting on your blog. The pictures inspire me to focus on more than birds in my travels. I was thrilled to hear that you matted one of your photos.... instantly turns a great picture into a work of art. Perhaps we can exchange calendars this year! Your response to my "list" is treasured... you "listen" so deeply to what is said. Thanks!
