From my house to yours…

I’m fascinated by the way they run. While ground squirrels scurry around in a frantic manner, the Red (and the Gray) seem to glide along weightlessly, as if riding some kind of invisible wave.

An egret will pose along side a road and let you drive by him all day long. But just slow down a little bit and he’s all threatened and just takes off.

This time he didn’t go far and I snapped this picture. Interesting feather action— may be a good subject study.

This photograph that I took of a gopher snake brings to my mind some American Indian beadwork that I’ve seen. But, of course, there are so many amazing patterns and designs in nature that it is truly overwelming!
