Nature At Its Finest

These photo's are from our fishing trip this weekend. Our neighbor owns 80 acres right down the street from us. He was kind enough to let us enjoy his little piece of paradise for the day. I was just in awe with how beautiful this land was and so close to our house. Stop by my other blog My Crazy Life With A Toddler to see more photo's of our fun day.

Make sure and click on the images to enlarge. The photo's of the deer are a little hard to view on my blog. Gosh, I would just love to buy a zoom lens. Maybe Santa will be good to me this year.

Thanks for stopping by today.

The Fog

I took this picture a few weeks ago while enjoying my coffee on our back deck. This picture doesn't do this amazing event justice. It was an awesome site to watch as the fog crept back away from my back fence. It was almost like watching a movie.

Thanks for stopping by.

Zoo Photography

Last Friday we went on a preschool field trip to the Potter Park Zoo. We all had an amazing time. I love this Zoo because it's small and not so overwhelming like the Detroit Zoo. Plus, you can get up close and personal with the animals. No, you can't touch them,but you're sure darn close. We even had the pleasure of enjoying a little presentation before we started our zoo walk. The kids got to look and touch the animals in the presentation. Though mommy was a little scared of the scaly ones. LOL! Hope you enjoy the photo's.

The little one and her friend. Starting our zoo trip.

Our presentation before the zoo walk.

Yikes, an Opossum! I have enough of this buggers in my yard. Didn't really need to come to the zoo to see it. LOL!

Not sure what this little guys was called, but he was sure cute.

Yucky Lizard thing! I wasn't about to touch this scaly reptile.

The Tiger was very cool. He kept making this crazy face. I think he had a tooth ache. Dang, look at those teeth.

The sweet Spider Monkey's. They were very entertaining.

My all time favorite. The fascinating Penguins.

Of course I had to take a picture of the Peacock that was running free. I was hoping and praying that he would open his wings, but no such luck.

The little one posing as the Tiger.

Now she's roaring like a Tiger.

I loved this Llama. She seemed to have an old soul. She was so sweet while I was feeding her. Feeding the Llama's was the highlight of my trip.

Can you say Madagascar? Remember these furry guys from the movie? These cute fur balls were so funny.

Anyone for a Camel ride? I swear this sweet old Camel was posing for me. Is that a smile?

Mommy Camel and baby Camel. Isn't that sweet?

And of course our countries bird. The Bald Eagle.

Thanks for spending some time at my place.

Teaching Your Children The Wonders Of Nature

This is my little ones favorite thing to do with Dandelions. She waits each year for this momentous occasion. She will blow and blow until all the Dandelions have died off for the spring season. Pictures taken with my Nikon D-80.

Introducing Mrs. Robin

I have a new house guest this week. I'm pleased to introduce Mrs. Robin. She decided to build her nest and lay her eggs right on top of my garage door opener. I think she's crazy to lay her eggs in my garage since I have two dogs that go in and out all day long. I know the pictures aren't my best work. Actually I think they look terrible, but I had a hard time taking the pictures without making her angry. I took these photo's with my Nikon D-80.

Thanks for taking time to stop by today
