Windy but nice

As you know we've been having some strange weather in Arkansas.  Just when you think it will be a great day for shooting that's when the wind will start blowing at a high speed or it will decide its going to rain.  Just yesterday I went out to shoot some purple iris and I got all set up with the tripod and lights and the wind began to blow.  I tried to sit it out but finally gave up. As for the temp its been great and I'm glad its finally warmed up.  

Today I saw a brown bird that I've not seen before and I been trying to find it in the bird books but with no luck.  It was sitting in our apple tree.  I was told its been seen there several times but just have no idea as to what kind of bird it is.  Its about the size of a robin but brown in color. 

My granddaughter will be graduating from OK high school this Saturday  and of course if God be willing I will be there to see it. Her church will be having a special event for their seniors this Sunday so I am planning to stay till Monday and then head for home.  Then on May 31st  I will be headed out to Eureka Springs for Mapsym.  This will be their third event I will be attending.  This event occurs every other year.  I always enjoy this seminar.  They always have great speakers. I don't feel the cost of the seminar is that great.  It cost me more in hotel rooms than the seminar its self.  It will be a great deal of fun and my friend Georgeanna will be there again--it will be her third time as well.

Well my phone has started ringing so I guess its time to get off here and start getting some real work done.

I hope you have a great day in the Wilderness, I plan to.
