Weekend Roundup - E

 This week's assignment: Starts with E, Favorite, and Everything.


Starts with E: EYE starts with E. This EYE is a little scary.


But Bonnie has a kind EYE. She's a sweetheart.


Favorite: Of course, horses are always my favorite, but I also love birds, especially EAGLES. Below, if you look closely, you will see my very first shot of EAGLES in South Dakota. Sadly, I didn't realize they were in the picture until ...

... I took this picture. I thought this was my first shot. On my way home from the grocery store in Oklahoma, I took a backroad when I saw these two beauties in a tree. I slammed on the brakes, skidded to a stop, and reversed. To my surprise, they were still there.


This is one of my favorite EAGLE pictures.


Everything: Someone painted a little bit of EVERYTHING all over this buffalo.

Weekend Roundup - B



 This week's assignment: Starts with B, Favorite, and Blustery.


Starts with B: BUMBLE BEE starts with B. Only females have stingers, and because they lack barbs on their stingers, they can sting multiple times without dying. Unlike honey bees, bumble bee colonies have an annual life cycle. Only the queens survive the winter by hibernating underground, emerging in the spring to start entirely new colonies. ~ wiki



Favorite: I love to find a nice bench when out walking, or when it overlooks a beautiful view, such as this one overlooking the Illinois River.


Blustery: A cold, BLUSTERY day last winter. Brrr.
