Day 8
January 8th 2017 – Starling – Sturnus vulgaris Linnaeus
I put some broken up pieces of bread out for the birds today (which isn’t really anything unusual for me, they’re so cute that I cannot resist feeding them) and I thought maybe if I am quiet enough this time I might be able to snap a nice picture. Not long after I put the bread out, the sparrows and starlings were munching away on the bread, seemingly happy. Until a big flock of seagulls (like 10 of them) came swooping in to steal the food! Don’t think I have ever had seagulls in my backyard in any other house I have lived in. Crazy! hehe!

Day 6
Six days into 2017 and off to a good start here. Weather has been a bit wet and windy but everything is still looking beautiful.
I tried to capture this stunning Calla Lily in mid bloom today. The wind wasn’t helping at all, nor the lack of sun but I am happy with the outcome.

I hope 2017 has been kind to you so far. 🙂 x
Visiting Amy :)
I had a great time visiting Amy for lunch/movies yesterday. She let me take some random photos so I could get one to use for my photo a day thing. I managed to get a nice one of Alvin but I got a few other beautiful ones. (Click here to see the rest of the gallery). 🙂 It helps that they’re all so beautifully photogenic!

Alice – Blue and White Greyhound

Finally reached over 10,000 views (actually a little while ago but sadly I was too busy to notice) But I am super excited and hugely grateful to all of you who have taken the time to look at my photography!! A million thanks to everyone who has supported me over the years, you guys are awesome. It has been a long (sooo long) time since I updated anything on here but I have added a few newer photos today and hopefully I will be able to take photos more regularly soon.
