Oh my goodness, that swan certainly gave you a look! You did manage to capture him beautifully with the camera. We have about 40 swans that live on the bay about a mile from me. They are just so beautiful

It is a wonderful crystal for the heart, helping to heal any old wounds and release past trauma while opening one up to receiving love in the present moment. I have been a crystal enthusiast for many years

Each winner certainly captured the moment, well done!

Silvia, he is just too cute with his skinny body and big round head. You really are so creative.

They could not be more adorable. I just love squirrels and chipmunks and I did not know that you had them to care for. I really need to pay better attention to my friend's passions. ;-)

I am so very proud of all of you for the intense, determined effort to bring fresh water to all the communities. You are all indeed and inspiration to us all.

Thank you! It was taken at our local park on the lake.

I hope you are feeling better quickly, the tree can wait. Be well!

It is amazing that you could get that close to all the animals and take such nice photos of them.

Thanks, the black and whites really changed the look of the original photo. I imagine with all your interesting places to capture you would have some really interesting ones too.

It is so kind of you to take such good care of all those cats.

Have fun decorating the tree. I think Larry will enjoy all the fun stuff you put on it, ;-) That chowder sounds delicious too.

Me too! There is something special about a bonfire that just makes us feel so good inside.

Thank you for your nice comment!

I seldom see posts from my friends and I do not know why. I have to go looking for all of you from time to time to stay in contact. love and hugs.

Thank you so much! I love raising these beautiful creatures.

Ha, they are very funny, running and hiding from you. lol

I can tell by your photos that this dish is delicious.

That looks like a lot of work but I bet it is very delicious. It reminds me of a greek dish wrapped in grape leaves I had a very long time ago.

You have captured the spirit of the celebrations so wonderfully. I love all the colorful art and flowers that your people have created. Floating the floral pieces down the river is such a lovely ritual
