January 2009

I know I've been very remiss and have taken three months off, but I'm going to post a whole month's worth of pictures now. These were all taken around the house this month.

Y is for Yellow

Who would ever think there were so many very bright yellow things in nature!!

Here are a few.

Lotus blossom--this picture has won prizes in two contests and was published in the Jan/Feb 2008 South Carolina Wildlife Magazine
