Just over two weeks ago, I shared some of the pictures I took of the moon on February 26th, about six hours before it was officially full. Now I have 15 more photos and an animated gif I got of the Full Snow Moon on February 27th, about eighteen hours later. One thing before I... Continue Reading →
A walk in the woods with my husband for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
For my last Thursday Tree Love post two weeks ago, I mentioned that the temperature had "soared" to almost 50F/10C before dropping back to stupid cold more seasonable temps. Well today was even nicer, getting up to 66F/19C! While the weather swing was welcome, it also tends to kick up my Essential Tremor, so as... Continue Reading →
The Full Snow Moon on February 26th 2021 (six hours before full)
It's been a minute since I've done a Moon Monday post - in fact, the last one was about a month ago, and I still haven't finished editing the photos for the Full Wolf Moon Part Two I planned to do! I'd hoped to get these photos of the Full Snow Moon on February 26th... Continue Reading →
Trees Along the Driveway for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
Yesterday we had our first warm day in what seems like forever. Temps "soared" to almost 50F/10C so even though it was cloudy out, I decided to take advantage of the warmth and take a walk out into the woods behind our house to get some different shots for today's Tree Love post. However, I... Continue Reading →
Trees Between Snowy Weather for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
We got spoiled by a mostly snow-free winter up until a few weeks ago, but it seems Mother Nature's grace period is over. We've had a least three significant snowfalls in the past couple of weeks (including for my last Thursday Tree Love post), and it looks like we're in for more, starting on Valentine's...

Moon Monday – Night after the Full Wolf Moon, part 1
Happy Moon Monday! Last week I mentioned that while I wasn't able to get a ton of photos of the full moon on January 28th, I did get back outside the following night and managed a goodly amount of shots (almost seventy), despite the freezing cold temps and my persnickety camera battery. To make sorting... Continue Reading →
Moon Monday – Full Wolf Moon on January 28th 2021
Happy Moon Monday! As I mentioned on Twitter a few days ago, the night of the full moon was bitter cold and wicked cloudy. Added to that bit of loveliness was the ongoing issue with my camera battery dying after about a dozen shots, which meant I'd go outside and snap until my Nikon declared... Continue Reading →
Trees During Snowy Weather for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
As I mentioned in my last Thursday Tree Love post, my camera (or should I say, my camera's battery) has been a bit cranky as of late. And the light bit of snow that starting falling last night has been steadily drifting down all day, which given the fact I don't have one of those... Continue Reading →
The Feathered Friends Show Me A Photo Contest, Round 3 – Two Birds
When I saw the contest announcement for the latest round in the Feathered Friends "Show Me A Photo" contest, I knew immediately what photo I wanted to enter for the theme of Two Birds. But just to be sure, I decided to scan my hard drive for other pairs of birds, as I knew I... Continue Reading →
Zazzle greeting cards featuring my feathered friends for my mother
I'm putting together some Zazzle greeting cards featuring my feathered friends for my mother and thought I'd share it as a post, so she has a chance to approve the order before I send it in. It seemed rather fitting, since my last feathered friends post was the reason she wanted to order more cards... Continue Reading →
The Woods Behind our House for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
Today is yet another cloudy, cold (but above freezing, so yay!) day here in New Hampshire, and everything outside, including the woods behind our house, just looks... meh. Knowing that I wouldn't be able to take pictures of snow dusted trees, snow covered trees (and the time for fall foliage is long past...lol), I thought... Continue Reading →
Mostly #WordlessWednesday – Birds at my Feeder
It was at some point in late November/early December I decided to put my bird feeders out by our bedroom window again. I had quite the Avian Eatery going for a couple of years around 2017, but with all of my health stuff, combined with issues concerning our rental home (the septic specifically has had...
