Been an interesting few years subscribing to UHH but its become far too vitriolic with members criticizing posts quite unhelpfully simply to boost their own over inflated egos. Suppose its only to be expected though in a country where children have the Constitutional Right to take guns to school to kill their teacher and other pupils! Yes and elect a criminal con merchant as President.
Keep well those who do not fit this profile.

Thanks, Floyd. I looked and see it. Can you give me a better idea where to look?
1st. Picture: Left margin about 1/3 from the top begins the light green nose; the head is turned to the right, and going down that left margin is the side of the mouth(maybe with snuff therein); The chin is rounded and has an insect on it. Entire item is light green; possibly the inside of a large leaf. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.

I needed 2 very small screws and didn't trust my ability to determine the proper screw size. Went to my local optician and the tech tried several of their tiny screws and found 2 that fit nicely - charge? Nothing.

As spring takes hold, the various neighbors are producing more photo ops along the walk.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
Very nice flower pictures. Are you aware of the light green head silhouette in the 1st. picture?
Is the "Ole Hippy",who always presented beautiful flower pictures, still with us?
Since you will be in the area, you might consider an evening at the Sight and Sound theater. If you enjoy beautiful music, great voices, fantastic sets, live actor and animals, you will see the musical "Daniel". Check their site, separating the two names with a dash and adding a dot com at the end.
Also, as already mentioned, a driven through the Amish communities presents many photo opportunities (beautiful horses-field animals are usually different from those drawing a buggy, their farm implements, dress and lifestyles).
Finally, you can stay at a motel (the formal names escapes me) each room being a train caboose.
All kinds of shopping! My wife had a ball! Hope you and your sister do as well.
As NMgal indicated, the eyes look odd. Those who like cats often overlook one thing: All cats have the eyes of a predator. Compare the eyes of this cat, thanks to a neat picture, to those of a lion or leopard: like a blank stare, no emotion, just evaluating evrything as prey.

Sympathy! I'm there, too. I have the RX10iv and some of my best birds and wildlife shots were taken with it. It even has animal eye recognition (cats for sure, not certain about birds).
But I'm still addicted to the higher quality raw shots from my SONY 𝜶6500. I am going to try an A-mount 70-400 on it (I have the required adapter already). Bought used, of course. I can recommend. either that lens or the FE100-400. I've used both and they are excellent with that small, lightweight camera.
I've used the Nikon-mount 150-600 and also found it too big and heavy for walking around shots.
One was taken with the 𝜶6500 and Sony FE70-200. The other with the RX10. I am fond of both. The best camera is the one you can actually carry and use.
Sympathy! I'm there, too. I have the RX10iv and so... (

Both are beautiful pictures! Did you notice the large sensor spot below the osprey?

You know you're getting old when your "Forgetter" has gotten much better than your "Rememberer".

Happy Birthday, youngster.I know how you feel and 25 years from now you'll know how I feel today - which ain't bad for an old coot. One thing I've noted, everyone wants to live a long time; no one wants to get old!
Call the Apple support Number, 800-275-2273. I will be surprised if someone familiar with iPods can't help; plus its free.

For some unexplainable reason, insects have been very scarce in our garden for a couple of years now.
I was very pleased to catch this beautiful Monarch this morning as it landed on our Lily shrub.
We've had several do a fly-by but this is the first one that's actually landed, Posed for several shots as well...
Sharp, beautiful picture of male Monarch.

I completed my 88th trip around the sun back in January. A friend told me we had a disease called "Old Coot-itis" and you knew you had gotten it when you realise your "Forgetter" has gotten much better than your "Rememberer".
Very nice photos. The Chevrolet and I are the same age; the car shows a lot less mileage!
