Weekend Roundup - X

 Why did I decide to post today when the prompt is X? The prompts are: Has an X, Favorite, and Looks Like an X. I don't have anything with an actual X, so I'll be cheating. Hey, but I'm actually posting on Friday. :)

Has an X: It doesn't quite have an X, but the small branches form one, so maybe will work. Wood Duck.

Favorite: I know, it's shocking but I'm not posting a horse in my favorite slot. Instead, I give you this awesome bull. He looks nice, but I still liked having a fence between us.

Looks Like an X: Mr. and Mrs. House Fince formed an X while waiting for other birds to vacate the feeder.

Weekend Roundup - S

This week's assignment: Starts with S, Favorite, and Stop.


Starts with S: My favorite season, SPRING, starts with S. 


Favorite: You know what's coming, don't you? That's right, a horse. This is SONNIE and Reba enjoying their hay on a foggy morning. SONNIE is the Lineback Dun. Reba is the Red Roan.


Stop:

There isn't an actual STOP SIGN, but there is a SIGN that says "Do Not Enter When Flooded," which essentially means stop. There is another SIGN saying "Turn Around, Don't Drown," but I didn't take a picture of it. We've been experiencing torrential rain, and this is the result. There is a small lake to the right, but normally you can't see it until you go down the hill. Sadly, the water level was up to where the road starts to slope downward. You can see the road going uphill on the other side of the water.


Hope everyone is safe from the storm. Linking to:

Weekend Roundup- O

 This week's prompts: Starts with O, A Favorite, and One.


Starts with O: OLD starts with O. I've been taking pictures of this old house since we moved to OKLAHOMA. I don't think it will last through another storm. OH, and look! Horses! :)


Favorite: We enjoy going to the races, especially in Hot Springs, AR. It's always exciting when my dollar bet is about to win. 



One
: And then there was ONE. This is the last hummingbird and haven't seen her in three days, so I guess that's the last of them until spring. I'm leaving my feeder up until the end of OCTOBER. There might be a late migrator in need of a drink.


HAPPY WEEKEND!

Weekend Roundup - H

 This week's assignment: Starts with H, Favorite, and Hot.

Starts with H: My love of HORSES is well known and since HORSE begins with H, I'm expected to post pictures of HORSES. Right? Surprise! Here's a ruby-throated HUMMINGBIRD


Okay, couldn't do it. This little filly is a beautiful HORSE. :)

Favorite: This is Bonnie, a.k.a. Beautiful Bonnie, one of my favorite HORSES


Hot: We have been experiencing a lot of HOT weather lately, so Bonnie and Reba decided to go for a swim. HOT HORSES enjoy rolling in the pond.


Have a wonderful week ahead!
