Mockingbird in my garden. Enjoy their singing even in the middle of the night.

The Northern Mockingbird is the state bird of Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas!

When you're walking around with your camera looking for a neat photo to snap and there it is!

Some of you will recognize what this is. If not, it's barbed wire for pasture fencing.

An Arkansas squirrel.
Busy little creatures who live around our home, gathering acorns, pecans and apples.

A country road is the slow way to get where you’re going; it’s a life well-lived.

Have a good day whatever road you travel.

It's the same people who fell for all the Biden nonsense. I don't know what it will take for Americans to wake up about their "rulers." They are constantly being played. Probably like many other countries as well.

About to land at the Clematis Cafe. Summer in my garden.

Sunset over our farm from 2015. My favorite tree on top of the hilltop pasture where I love to capture sunsets.

Blue sky and maple leaves!
Wishing you all a peaceful day.
It's already mid-November and a few maple leaves survived the windy day after a cold front came through our area in Arkansas.

Brightness from behind an unusual cloud. Anyone experiencing pareidolia? What do you see? 😀

My nephew took 2 great photos of the northern lights from his home in northern Arkansas. I especially like the one with the bare tree.

Sometimes I feel like the oak tree in my garden is watching me.

Do you know what this is?
Back in the good old summertime, my zinnias were starting to produce buds. Closeups capture amazing details!

Wishing you all a good day.

Yesterday evening, November 11, we enjoyed seeing the northern lights from our home in Arkansas, not something we see very often. Here's my daughter's photo.

After the cold front arrived with gusty winds, there remain a few maple leaves today under a cool blue sky.

Wishing you all a good day!
