My cockatiel “Baby” and I were sitting on our deck having tea yesterday morning around 8:30am. I in my lounge chair, Baby on the railing snacking sunflower seeds with the visiting Chickadees and Nuthatches. I was enjoying nature’s twitters and squeaks of the morning until Baby let out a desparate scream. I looked up in […]
This weekend we spent with Richard and Jacquie on the Vineyard. We left sunny Acton and arrived in Falmouth at the ferry in otherworldly thick fog. The boat carefully inched its way out of the harbor, sped across the water, and then slowed to a crawl as the captain dodged pleasure craft and fishing boats […]
The heron’s legs remind me of my own. Yes, I may be obsessed with this bird, but I take great joy stalking him as he patiently waits for some unsuspecting fish to swim by.
Mark Schreiber just returned from Greece and Ireland and sent these photos taken with his cell phone while hiking outside Dublin and in hall next to the Book of Cells. I added the background music, “If I Had Maggie in the Wood” by The Chieftains.

Michael, After getting out of the hospital (again) today my docs/nurses said to go easy on the exercise. So I was on a post dinner amble around the house long after sunset. I saw something moving out of the corner of my eye. There were dozens of these little unidentified flitting critters sucking on the […]
rakkity, you might be interested in Goose’s last adventure. Someday you two might climb rocks together.

I searched online for car covers and settled on a mid-priced wrap at about $150.00. It’s important that the cover breathes, but keeps water off the car, and resists ice and […]
Michael, You can remove Funny Business from the Upcoming.  My next photo collection will be one of the following: 1. The canals of Boulder  (probably should wait till the spring runoff for this one.) 2. The fountains of Boulder (I might combine this with #3) 3. Boulder’s outdoor art–not including murals & bronzes  (This […]
A few more Bailey pictures set to Tracy Chapman’s “Give Me One Reason” which way outlasts the photo sequence. Also, we have Goose’s blog where he complains about a possible nearby dorm fire disturbing his sleep. But, like the pro he is, he takes the time to photograph the on-scene fire engine.
Michael, One of the first things we noticed after coming to Boulder (Jan/2007) was the wealth of non-traditional and funny-named businesses. I’ve been collecting names and photos (and sometimes web pages) for 7 months now. There are a couple of businesses/buildings I’m not sure the purpose of, and I included one that is completely obscure. […]
