Black Beauty




At first I thought this was a humming


bird with about a 4 inch wing span,


flitting around the fence flowers. And


fumbling to get my Cybershot camera out of my


pocketbook, I was happy it hung around


so I could get a pretty clear photo. It


was not easy to get the detail with


it being in constant motion--one of


yesterday's moments of joy....

Just a great photo, isn't it amazing what we seen when we are looking. Some people never see anything, which is really sad., nature is so beautiful. My son has blue birds in is yard and it is not a yard for blue birds. Would never have seen them if he was not a bird watcher!!! Now the family is getting ready to leave the nest.

Your comments are so true.
When I see bluebirds and especially if I get to to photo them will be a thrill for me----did I tell you the problem with all the freeze ups must have been the mouse---as installing a new plain generic type solved the problem---oh happy day !
