A thousand wings, a million stars

in my back yard this weekend

Sulphur butterflies and purple asters,
a little Eden in this desert

Sunflowers of a different color

or colours, as the case may be...

here's another, closer in

Liberation Day

I was transferred out of hell. I feel like I've been emancipated, like I can be happy again.

Monday morning blues

the good kind of blues

unfurling

Southwestern weather at a glance

Beginning, middle and end...

I've been seeing so many rainbows lately, bound to find something wonderful ahead.

Horns work, try the lights

Longhorn parade at the Great Southwestern Antiques Show

in Albuquerque at the State Fairgrounds

Many other wonders to behold.

Hummingbird watching me

from its perch in the willow tree

just a closer look
(the best my little camera could do with that wingspeed)

then back to the perch
