It appears that some things have red eyes even when they’re not tired!
They only look Photo-Shopped. Really they're the real thing.

♫ C-H-I-C-K-E-N … That Ere The Way You Spell Chicken ♫
The Chicken and Bunny Barn is one of my favorite places at our county fair. Here are some of the denizens of the chicken side …
This guy stuck his head out of the cage and pecked my friend! Good thing I had my camera for protection!
I discovered that chickens have tongues! But do they have lips? That's still undecided.
Check out this one's eye. Beautiful!
May I see your license, Ma'am? (Doesn't he look like State Trooper material?)
The feather pattern -- Wow!
Beak-to-beak
And now for something completely different!
BIG chicken foot!
Feathered foot
Here’s something else, too! :~)
Bustin' out of the cage! (Well, sort of)

Hush Little Baby
Apparently the parents told this baby to freeze as my car approached — and stay frozen when I got out and stuck the camera in its face. It fell asleep at some point — startling awake when I picked it up to move it to safety.
Oh My! A headless baby robin standing in the road!

A Feathery Tale
It was on my door …
in the driveway ...
at the stop sign ...
when I ordered at Sonic ...
when the carhop arrived ...
at my destination ...
supersaturated black and white ...
shot in sepia ...
shot on 'cool' ...
shot 'warm' ...
and back to 'standard'

Dense Fog Alert!
I saw on the Weather Channel that there was a Dense Fog Alert for us until 9 this morning. They weren’t kidding! It was one of those fogs that should have delayed school, but the buses rolled anyway! When my walking partner was running behind, I headed to the park to see if I could find some foggy scenes and spider webs. Those were great fun to shoot, and I had a hard time deciding which to post. (I love them all!) But decide I must, so here’s what I chose:
Bench
Fog reveals who's under your feet. (Kind of makes your feet feel creepy, huh?)
Hammock Web
Curly blade
I was hoping to find a drop that reflected something!
This is the kind of view I like when I'm going down river.
All these webs and nobody home
Different perspective
Location, location, location. A home with a view!
Morning run
I love the different sizes the drops took. And people say there is no God!
Droplet Guy
This reminds me of a pearl necklace I have.
It just looks like the spider went a little crazy on this design. But what a result!
Floating drops fascinate me.
Stunning!
The camera just doesn't see the colors in the water beads that I was seeing!
What's a photo series without a picture of Aslan? ;~)
The photo session ended when Agent 99 (right) rolled over on the clump of grass I was laying on the ground to photograph. She’s got some absorbent fur!
