While enjoying a little #winterfun here in northern NH this weekend I snapped this pic because I thought the #clouds were pretty. The fact that it looks like my daughter is about to be "beamed up" made me giggle 😆 Happy #BlueskyMonday

I found some cone flowers for #StunDay Sunday.

#photography #bloomscrolling #flowers #gardening

Three cone flowers against a background of pale green leaves. Their petals are turned downward exposing their bright orange centers. The one in the center is in sharp focus while the two behind it are more blurry and indistinct.

I am so far behind on my breed study spinning! Yesterday I got acquainted with the August wool of the month, Perendale. It is indeed easy and pleasant to spin! 🐑🧵 #breedstudy #spinning #wool

A bobbin of spun yarn, a chain of wool roving, and a book open to a page of information about Perendale sheep.

Mistletoe is more than just a Yuletide kissing attraction; it plays a hugely important role in ecosystems. (from 2022) https://to.pbs.org/3hsOcZ7

How mistletoes are expected to fare on a warming planet

Can the famous parasitic plants help animals to survive climate change, or will they be killed off by extreme weather?

This is one of my all time favorite photos, from my “Bob’s Carriage Shed” pics (dad’s old truck junk)

The days grow shorter. The light grows softer. And suddenly, there is space — space to think, to breathe, to remember who we are when everything else becomes still.

A frosty field stretches into the distance under a pale, misty sky. Parallel tractor tracks lead straight toward the horizon, gradually fading into the fog. The low winter light and the thin coat of frost create a quiet, muted landscape with a sense of calm and stillness.

a photograph of an adult swallow (probably a tree swallow) feeding a juvenile. the juvenile is sitting on a line of barbed wire with its mouth open, while the adult swallow is frozen in mid-flight with a mouthful of insects, ready to be placed directly into the juvenile's mouth.
