look at these beauties

the needles I was waiting for

arrived

acrylic ones

and beautiful wooden ones

look at the colour inspiration in those

!!!

metal ones still to be opened

and below

the soft and supple cable

no more twisty tangles

ooooooooo

and then

and then

this that  I spied this morning

and rushed outside to

shoot

right before the rain came

an American Bald Eagle

flying in the wind aloft

so high you can hardly see him

but I saw him in a flash of sun

for just a second

but it was long enough to identify him

with his white head and tail

the wind is cold and blowing

and looking down

I spied these

life amongst the dead and dry

crocus'

I know I know

crociiiiii

on the back lawn

(there's that word again!!)

in amongst the leaf litter

ever present

poking through the earth

and showing the new season isn't far away now

even the rose bush agrees

and there's even one for later

and she doesn't give two hoots

coz she can't eat them

or sleep on them

.......

oh my what a big eye you have kitty!!!

so there you go

something

 new

graceful

pretty

and

grumpy!!!!
