That blossom is stupendous. Very interesting how it changes overnight and becomes even more beautiful than the day before. ♥

You did it again! So many wonderful captures and the Beaver is just too dang cute for words!

So happy to hear you are feeling better, Jay. The second pier is beautiful with the sunrise.

That white whisker makes her look regal. ;-)

Congratulations of this great milestone. Here is my entry.

I've never had Okra, but I hear that many people love it. Good job growing your own!

I do share some of the pumpkins with the squirrels. They go crazy for them and fight over the seeds. lol I started giving pumpkin puree to our cat and the seeds to Mika. They both love pumpkin. I wonder

Yes, the pumpkin seeds are delicious and nutritious too.

Thank you for the reminder, I didn't pay attention to the time I posted. So sorry!

You should try the cookies, make sure to use canned pumpkin and not pumpkin Pie filling.

I agree, thank you for the support.

Dang woman, you certainly can pack a lot in on one day. You make me tired, lol.

I totally agree, the female duck would look regal in B&W.

I guess I'm torn by the subject matter. I love B&W sometimes, but prefer color too. Yeah, the servers were acting wonky yesterday when I tried posting. Odd!

It's too bad that they don't take your advice to correct and nurture the soil. That is the most important part of the ecosystem. So sad about the saplings, :-(

I'd never heard those songs before. The 80's hairstyles and clothes took me back in time. ♥

I just love your musings! Boxes, ha I crush them and refuse to be put in one. Call me a rebel if you want; I've been one since I was 2 years old, and that is a long time ago, now that I'm 70. I appreciate

Your stroll captured so many lovely aspects of nature. The moss-covered wall and the lichen are beautiful.

What a beautiful building, Ellen. I can imagine how magnificent it must have been back in the 1700's. It's such a shame to see it had been left to decay. I wonder how it would look today restored. Hmmm?

The B&W photos really look fantastic, well done!
