Thanks! I'd like one of each, but I'm broke this week! LOL! Is that foggy forest path where you took the Raven shot? 
BJ

LOL. Of course you are. :biggrin: And nope....that is another foggy path. We got lots of them where i live.....much to Eija´s delight.

Is beautious exotica already taken?  It is one of the most beautyiful plants I've ever seen! If no one here nows perhaps posting out front will get your answer. Maybe PJ would know. I love his hat! I want one! I used to have one, very tall and purple velvet, I let a child at a Harry Potter reading have it. He stuttered quite badly and part of the party was to read aloud, since it was a magic hat, wearing it worked. Since he really did stutter quite a bit less, I couldn't take it back. Let me know if you find out what that is, I'm collecting a list of plants I'm going to try not to kill when I get a garden.

BJ

I'll enquire from the source...though I am not sure she even knows. :)

Thanks for the effort. Hey did you guys hear? Our own Andreas Stridsberg is being featured in February issue of SNAP magazine! Congrats Andreas, my copy's on the way.
BJ

Big congrats to SNAP feature superstar, Andreas Stridsberg!!! :thumbupboth: :b_cool: :thumbupboth:

Hey Kort I just noticed your avatar isn't just huddling inside his coat! LOL! Too cute!
BJ

My cousing Marcus....

I suppose that´s all for now....over and out.

Andreas, all are wonderful!   I wonder about that shed in the sunlight..beautiful shot. Of course, you HAD to get good shots of the loved ones...Eija and Gizmo.  thanks for these fine views of your land and life within it.

AMAZING!

YAHOO!  I just got my issue of SNAP magazine! The featured artist article on Andreas was wonderful and included many of my favorites. I also found that other RR artists were also interviewed and had work posted. So Congrats as well to, LouLouBell, mark.spooner, and stuart83. The magazine is beautiful, although expensive it was really cool to see some of our own honored.
Congrats to you all!

BTW, Great shot of Princess Eija Andreas!
BJ

Don't you hate to find hair in your food!?

LOL! Hair in my food is something i´ve gotten pretty used to since i got pets. Now it just doesn´t taste the same without it. :tt2: Thank you Tom, Kort and Bobbi by the way.

Funny one Manning, and congrats again Andreas ( and LouLouBell, mark.spooner, and stuart83)!

:b_confused: :b_uncertain: :b_rolleyes: :b_unbelievable: :b_stunned: :b_smile: :b_blush: :b_funny: :b_grin:

ROTFLMAO!!! HAHAHAHA!!! Thank you so much Maria. You´re too generous. :tt2:

LMAO at you as well Kort. You got way too much time on your hands my friend.

:b_tonguewink:

LOL, Andreas...what are friends for?! :P

LOL, it probably is more something like that Kort. Neat effect BTW!

I love both views for the hummingbirds! there are always such great shots here. I love the dedicatio to Zacko, Miss Lady. Good one! BJ

BTW How doyou get your smileys to work here? mine just leave code see!

Very cool shots Kort. I love that sky! It's good to see Ibis of any colour, there used to be a large population of scarlet ones in the south, they were decimated to make ladies hats! Sad that we are so jealous of thier plumage we kill them for it.
BJ

You've a very steady hand, Tom. That's a lovely photo! Watching your uploads it seems we have many of the same birds around but I have yet to see a song sparrow so I appreciate your posting this one.

I am posting two others here, not the same sort of photos but interesting to me.  Thanks.  Tom.

This is a Carolina Wren, at some seed on the front deck and next to a pie pan with suet. The pie pan blew out, totally.  We have House Wrens and Carolina Wrens..apparently the difference is the white by the eye but I better check a book on that.  These tiny birds have such a loud, loud song!

See the feet? The feet look large compared to the bird. Well suited for kicking up leaves and such as they do all the time.  Maybe those were the large bird tracks in the snow we had recently.

Funny story about the "antelope" , bet you'll pay closer attention from now on :biggrin:

Now that is some super suet! Is it homemade?         Tom.

And, a nice Wren shot, to boot.  Yes, they do look grumpy when seen closely. But their songs tell me otherwise unless I am being misled by the birds. They can play tricks on us..as do the squirrels.
