    Piperbarb's 2014 Project 365

    6-19-14: I saw this little guy on a tree in the backyard when I had the dog out this morning. He saw the dog and me, and just froze. I did use fill flash because the light was not the greatest. At least its eyes are not as ghoulish as the squirrel's were yesterday. :) Don't Move. No One...

    6-18-14: I now have two red squirrels going after the sunflower seeds in the bird feeder. I had squirrel turf wars go on for over a half hour. They even had a couple of squirrel wrestling bouts. There was also a lot of screeching and chipping/clicky sounds. By the time I was able to get...

    6-17-14: I took this series of deer photos the other morning when I was walking the dog before having to go to work. I wish they were sharper but they are not bad for handheld photos at 1/80 to 1/100 sec with my non-VR 55-200 Nikkor zoom. :) I also had the dog with me. She was totally...

    6-16-14: Sorry for the very poor photo but I took this through the bedroom window with the screen down. If I opened the screen, one of my more curious cats would have probably exited that way and the doe would have scampered across my neighbor's backyard. :) The brown blob with the tail, is...

    6-15-14: I know, everyone takes daisy photos, so here is my contribution to the plethora of daisy photos. :) What I like about this one is that the petals are definitely not evenly spaced, and NO BUGS!!! This year's crop of Russian Comfry. I have some of this growing behind the house and...

    6-14-14: Jenny always makes a good subject, even if it is just her nose. ;0 The Nose Knows I have no idea what these little purple flowers are, but they show up in my back lawn every year at this time.

    6-13-14: If only real bats were as cute looking as this guy. Don't get me wrong, I love bats. They eat hundreds of bugs an evening.

    6-7-14: This moth was on the other side of the glass. I liked the different point of view. Most o the time, we don't photograph the underside of a moth or most any other insect. Scrat is back. Actually, she never left. She just moved to the trees on the other side of my back lawn since...

    6-6-14: Buttercup... What else can I say? :) There is always something interesting about dandelion seed puffs. Puffball I haven't seen a lot of rabbits this year, just this same one almost every day. I wish my rhododendron flowers lasted longer than they do. They are always so...
