As I recall I spent most of last
spring exclaiming about how each week had more pictures than the last week. And
it is true that Dr. M took over 300 pictures this week so I think that’s a
pretty big increase from last week. BUT I’ve condensed them somewhat because
instead of posting all the pictures of the moon & our trip to the fen
today, I’m making you go to his blog. So, go
here
and
here
right now so you don’t forget &
then come back here to check out my thoughts on our week.

Cowbirds have a bad reputation (why in the world
they act the way they
do is beyond me!), but I love their golden brown and black.
Our diner is open to all kinds of customers – no discrimination
here!

This cow is hilarious. First,
she gave Dr. M the look that cows usually give him and then she started scratching her ear with her hoof – like a dog
would. Cracks me up.
Lovely tulip picture Dr. M took
on his way home from school.
We used to run the cat out of
our yard because we didn’t like its hunting ways. But have you seen the number
of sparrows we have?
One of the many moon pictures
Dr. M took this week. If you haven’t already, head over to his blog

This tree is just over the fence
in our backyard. Lovely!
Yep, business is booming!
Wednesday,
April 24th
I got flowers from my company
for Administrative Professionals Day. I took great delight in posing them next
to my “Do I look like a people person?”
sign. Heh.
More tulips – ‘tis the season. I’ve
certainly enjoyed them!
Baby bull on the mooove, and an
even tinier calf with its mom.

I love this house’s phlox &
tulips – so pretty!
And isn’t it cool how they’ve
incorporated the dandelions into the landscaping?
Fat goldfinch.

April 26th
It was a bit cold this morning.
I got a free garbage bag full of skeins of yarn in bright colors,
so I came up with a project to incorporate some of them. I show you guys what
it is once it’s done.
Dr. M took this really cool picture
of a goose & its reflection – LOVE this!
Red-wing blackbird.

Today
after returning the zippy little rental car (Ms. Saturn is fixed & back
home now – woot!), Dr. M & I went to the Siebenthaler Fen to see if the
swamp marigolds were blooming now. They were – so here’s the State of the Bug:
Happy! If you haven’t already done it you can check out more Fen pictures on Dr.
M’s blog (you should – he used the best ones over there).
We
got a new finch feeder because the finches would land on our old one, look kind
of sad, & then leave again. I think this one is a hit!
Go to Mamma Fran’s blog
here
to see the blogs of all the other Project 365 participants. Have a great week!
Most of our photos are taken with a 12
megapixel Nikon D5000 DSLR, using a 55-200mm zoom lens. This is the camera that
Dr. M takes with him most days. He also takes pictures with our old reliable 7
megapixel Canon Powershot A710. The Bug uses our new Nikon Coolpix S6200 most of the
time. If you’re interested in which camera was used for a particular shot, just
ask!
