Hummingbirds

Hi Everyone,

Well the hummingbirds have finally started coming to my feeders!!! I was beginning to worry and just about the time I was about to give up on them, there they were!! At first it was just one, then later another one came and by some of the below photos you can tell that they didn't want to share!!

I took the images below on two different days, some in the morning and back lite one's I took just as the the sun was going down.

In case you can't tell in the photos, these are of 2 different kinds of hummingbirds. I looked them up online but right now I can't remember their names, but one set of them have these beautiful green feathers on their backs and the others are just kind of a tanish and nothing fancy.

I'm surprised they are still coming around because I've had to move the feeders a couple of times because the first one was on a shepard's hook in my flower bed, but I found my cat laying in waiting and he must have actually jumped up at the feeder because I found it on the ground!! Now I have them hanging from my gutters where there are no other obstacles around for Trouble, that's my cat, to be able to launch off of.

Ok, I'll include a couple of photos I took of Trouble the other day too. He's such a ham and so photogenic and I love him so much that I can't seem to get enough photos of him!!

This last one reminds me of an Angel descending to earth!!


And last but not least . . . here is Trouble

Baby Deer

Hello Everyone,

Thanks to my dog, Hank, who knows whenever there is another animal or critter of any kind on or near our property, I was able to get the below photos!!!


Because of wood fence panels against a 6 ft tall chain link fence and lots of bushes, this little baby was not able to see me, but I was able to finally see it!! It was laying down when I first spotted it and then it got up and walked a few feet, looked around and then laid back down again . . . waiting for his momma to return.


I was very excited to be able to get these photos and I hope you enjoy seeing them.

I hope you all have a fun and safe 4th of July!!

They are such a cute couple and I think we got a nice variety of images.

Ride the West 2009 - Mule & Donkey Trail Challenge

Hello Everyone,

Well, I had a great time at Ride the West, but I am still trying to recover from it!!! There were so many great things going on and I have tons of photos that I'm going through to get the image galleries online.

I want to share some of my favorites with you here on my blog. I think I will try to post a few photos from different events each day for a few days.

If you were at Ride the West and participated in any of the events please check my website to view the images. I have tons to upload so I am adding new image galleries each day until they are all uploaded!!

This photo is of a cute, cute little guy named Chance, he participated in the Wild Wild West Mule and Donkey Trail Competition. It was the cutest thing to watch!!!




This next image is of a lady that performs in the Draft Horse Show that is held in Sandpoint, Idaho every year in September. I took many photos of them 2 years ago and her husband ordered some really special ones to surprise her for Christmas. They were at Ride the West and I got to officially meet them and they are the nicest people!! And not only can this woman drive a team of mules but she can ride them very well also!! After each person finished the trail challenge they were able to do something special for extra points. She took off her saddle and did the challenge again BAREBACK!! It was pretty impressive.



I hope you have enjoyed seeing these images. I'll try to get some more posted tomorrow :)
