My life as an "empty nester" and "snowbird" is, more often than not, mundane and routine, though occasionally mixed with bits of excitement. All these experiences have meaning and bring many thoughts to mind, which I reflect upon here. This is my life - and it often happens when making other plans!! Join me in these musings - in both text and photography….!

Birds and flowers on Long Island

I took a few more photos on May 17th – so there will be bonus photos! I usually include them when I have trouble deciding what photo to choose on any given day. That day was the first day for photos of the feeders that had been recently put out. It took a little while [...]

Transitioning from Hilton Head to Long Island

Our trip north was when things deteriorated with my 365 photo project. I’d planned to quick run out and take one last photo of the lagoon the morning we left Hilton Head. I went to get my camera, which I’d placed in the “staging area” of our living room – but my husband had been [...]

Our Last Two days in Hilton Head

The Savannah trip to see the Tall Ships was Ray’s and my last special event in Hilton before our trip north. The last two days were spent mostly packing and organizing, and photography had to take a back seat. But – I did manage to take photos on those days. Sunday, May 6th was a [...]

May 5th – Tall Ships in Savannah

Ray and I usually go to Savannah on the first Saturday of each month that we’re in Hilton Head, as they always have a special craft fair, as well as entertainment on the river front. At dusk at the conclusion of December’s “First Saturday” celebration, Savannah has it’s annual Santa Claus parade, so

A Few more from ’round home – in Hilton Head

To continue… We had another week left in Hilton Head after our wonderful walk – so here are some more daily photos: On the side of our house on Hilton Head, we have lots of bushes, trees and pine straw. This photo is of a fungus of sorts that was growing on the stump of [...]

Sunrise at Folly Field (May 1st)

Whew! It’s taken me way too long to get back to blogging since our trip north. Though stressful, the trip went well. The cats were excellent travelers, although Felix’ “meow voice” was working over time! We are now safely settled into our home on Long Island, but during this period of time, I’ve bee

I’m behind!!

This is our last day in Hilton Head for the season. Tomorrow we head north to eastern Long Island for the summer (and part of the fall), and I am having withdrawal pains — missing the “wildlife in my backyard” already. The way I get photos will be very different up there, in that there’s [...]

Nature in the yard – and on the Lagoon. Catch up!

As we enter the last week we will be here for this season, I’m relishing all that nature has to offer us right in our own back yard. Sometimes I’m amazed at how many species of animals live in close proximity to one other – most times amicably. Different kinds of songbirds frequent the feeders [...]

Bluebirds to Great Blue Herons … and a Sego Palm

I’m still into birds, but have decided not to make another bluebird my photo of the day. Yes – I am taking daily photos of mom and dad bluebird as they come in and out of the box. I stand close (but not too close) so that I can hear the babies squeal as one [...]

Nesting Bluebirds

Ok … I admit it. I’m addicted to birds! I never thought this would happen, as this interest has come later in my life. When I was a child, I could not identify any birds, except maybe a robin. My mom had feeders outside her kitchen window, but I didn’t watch or even notice them [...]
