Winter in our region

We are the very "noisy" birds: in winter we had hard time to make a living.
We are very happy to get some hand outs,
the fish we eat
went deep
into warmer waters
and we are hungry.


I look fat, you think
but I am just puffing up
mt feathers
and so is warmer.





They call me :
'Red belly woodpecker"
but the red is on my head...



I live here too.
In a different part of the region
They call me "Fox squirrel"
I like black nuts,
not acorns!




The most beautiful in the winter show:
The Male Cardinal
tough birds to live
in the cold winter here.







I am the "Downy woodpecker"
a small little bird
but still a woodpecker







You can see that I am very similar
to those birds
on the East Coast,
but this picture is from
the Pacific North West.








They call it:
snow fence
to keep the drifting snow in control

At the very same time:

Down South

we the penguins

enjoy the summer time.

And so we celebrate the SOLSTICE

in the winter up North

and in the South

on the other pole.

November days

the misteries in Nature

No plane was ever created by men,

no plane would fly like this

the wonder of aerodynamics

created by nature!

Hear Ya...!

I am talking to you!!!

The grace in
deep waters

WALKING AROUND

These are the favored sights :

to see the clouds

because we still in need for lot of rain

The surviving heroes:

the Yucca and an Ornamental Grass

after the brutal heat and drought

Gourds are coming in all shapes and colors

the "clowns" in the Fall :-)


More serious stuff: food for humans
on the healthy side
(Veggies naturally)




One of my favored: the Turnips
if you know the right recipes
they can be just delicious.
I wish I could find
the best of the recipes, but
now just have to look
and hope to find. :-)

very funny

So is Fall in the world of flowers
Some decoration if you like

Serious matter: beauty after death

mmmmmmmmmmmmm

ON A HOT SUMMER DAY

My favored lunch

cauliflower cooked and placed in a little dish over oil and breadcrumbs.

On the top

little sprinkle oil and again breadcrumbs

and cottage cheese

with fat free sour cream.

For a few minutes

goes into the

toaster oven.

On the side: Southern biscuit.

For drink: apple juice

An other very much liked meal

from the

ingredients

what you see on the photo.

How the to make it for a delight

tell you

the next time:)

Now like to take some pictures

on this hot day

The beneficial deep shades

of the big oak trees

have saved lot of lifes

during this summer

heat waves

Burned out grasses

were just

what you could see.

But our prayers

were heard:

eventually clouds

started to come

and finally

the long waited rain

soaked the thirsty ground

and the

wilted vegetation

started to come alive.

You don't have to take an airplane to see a place on this Earth where there are still some dirt roads and meadows with poppy and other wild flowers

In my blog where Nature Talks by the kindness of a friend
from that God-blessed country
who sent these photos
to see and enjoy


there are poppies in the meados where no
grass cutting machines fill the air
with
annoying noise

where this little boy is a lucky kid

to learn about the

beauties

on an open field

where wild flowers bloom

and are not cut

and where you can see from an open space

a Sunset

on a summer evening

enjoying

a nice dry warm air.

to remember

when it is sizzling hot as it was today

I would say:

"Love you Sun

but what is too much

is too much"

and than the Sun would say:

"Just go into your braincells

and remember

the blizzard

in February!"

Than I would say:

"Oh my God you Sun!

I was looking for you

in the blizzard

but now

I stay out of your way!"

past,present,future

Just a doodle.

The black is representing the past.

The little forms: representing the present looking into the future.

There are no two forms

the same.

Nobody knows the future

and the variety of possibilities is endless.

It’s a land
No one’s land
Where I live
On the edge
That’s the end.

You wont’ see
White on white
Neither see
Black in night
That’s my life.

Happy times
When go by
Silly goose
Don’t you cry
After rain
Sun will shine.

Why is why?sss
Want to know

I don’t know.
Say: Good-bye!
