Snakes

 

It was such a beautiful day in the Wilderness that I thought I would go out into the woods and take some photos of the many different mushrooms I've been seeing around the yard. While exploring I found a turtle and took several pictures of him and got lots of photos of mushrooms of all color. I also found a copperhead luckily, my husband had a rake with him and could control him rather well. He told me it was because snakes react to heat and the rake was cold.

 

 

 

Doesn't he look friendly.  I thought so I ran and would not have come back but my husband said he would not let him get me and I was dieing (really) to get some photos. 

Later that day I got some good photos of birds but nothing matches those of the snakes!

See you in the Wilderness.

Day before Fall

Wow what a great day or maybe its the mood I'm in.  Last night was the night of our photo meeting at AOPC and I all wound up.  I WANT TO GO TAKE PHOTOS BUT I can't-- I've got company coming and a ball game to go to tonight--the SALT Game. 

In Nov. Tim Earnst will be coming to our club to show his latest photos but I want  get to go because that is our "Girls" weekend (no men allowed).  There is going to be a hot air balloon gathering in Hot Springs in Oct. and I want to be there  I got to get info on this and will  post it as soon as I get it.  ALso I've got to start looking for info on MAPSYSM in Eureka Springs.  Gee so much to do! 

Well, I guess I'd better get on out into the Wilderness if I going to enjoy any part of it to day.  The air is so clean and crisp today.  It has turned off cloudy just right for picture taking of  birds and small creatures.  I hope you're able to get out into the Wilderness and enjoy it some.  Have Fun.
