Skywatch Friday: Eyelashes

 Fair Weather Clouds

Love those wispy cirrus clouds.  They look just like eyelashes. 

That reminds me of an 80’s song by the Alan Parsons Project – “Eye in the Sky.”  I’ve added it to my playlist in case you want to check it out.

Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world. While you’re there, why not leave a link to your own skies so all can enjoy?

Stalking Deer

 

We often see deer in the late afternoon at the Annandale Community Park (where we saw the Butterfly Bench).  Lucy would catch their scent as soon as she gets out of the car and she would lead us straight to them.  The video shows our approach towards the deer.  Lucy was instinctively silent as she stalked her prey, but once we got about 10 feet away from the deer, she just couldn’t contain herself anymore and started barking loudly and pulling hard on her leash.  You can hear her shrilly bark at the very end of the video clip.  The deer took off as soon as she started.

Still Away

Hi everyone.  Holly’s not back yet.  Hopefully, she will be back next week.  Things are going okay, but she just needs to spend a little more time with her family.  She misses all of you and thanks you for coming by.  She will respond to all your comments when she returns.

In the meantime, I will put up a few more posts for Holly.  Please drop by.  I’ll try not to disappoint.

Big Blue Butterfly Bench

Big Blue Butterfly BenchOkay, maybe it’s not that big, but I was on a roll with the alliteration.  It could’ve been worse – “Big Blue Butterfly Bench Bolted Beside Bush.”   Don’t get me started.

This was taken on another of Lucy’s favorite walks at the Annandale Community Park in Annandale, Virginia.  Lucy loves to stalk deer through the woods in this park.

Will Be Away October 23-November 2

Hi everyone. Sorry for skipping out with such late notice, but a family emergency has come up and I’ll be traveling to them thar hills to help out the folks. Before I leave I’ll try to schedule a few photos to post, so please stop by if you’d like. I’ll have no internet access while away, so I’ll respond to any comments when I return.

Lucy will be accompanying me on the trip, so maybe we can fit in some Lucy-in-the-country pics for posting when we return.

I’ll miss all your blogs, but will catch up with you in November…

Holly & Lucy
