Onward and upward

Same trio after 3 months. Big al in the middle (male) , small girl on the left , and princess at back with a sprig of feather out of her head (don't know what gender but seems more male than small girl)- we'll see when eggs begin appearing.
I hope to get better quality renderings for next.

TWIXT

Looking for the space between words; the pause before the mockingbird selects his next offering. . .

Peace lies in the interval between breaths and the lack of thought between thoughts.

The lake seems placid today. A haiku koan might bring serenity

So Once Again


Week-old rouen ducks. When fully fledged they will have irradescent green heads and look somewhat like a mallard.
Unfortuantely there is absolutely no way to tell them apart, save small size differences, so they will have to remain nameless for the time being.

Vastness



I've always liked this view of southern Utah, USA in the spring. I'm trying to match the color of the sky with my blog background but haven't quite done it yet as is evident. There is an area near here where tribolites can be found. They are some of the oldest lifeforms on earth. Early Permian, I believe.
