The Amazing Anna

Song - Hummingbird's Mesmerizing "color change" Illusion


Recently I purchased a new lens for my camera - one that "zooms" a bit.





I also decided that if I want better bird photo's then I need to start using my tripod more often.





I was pleased with the first few photo's which were taken through my office window - which has a lot of mineral deposits on it from our sprinkler system.  So I decided to head outside.




 There were two Mourning Doves and one was just starting to close his eyes.  Kinda weird huh?




I had no idea that their eyelids didn't close straight down but kind of towards their back.




But then......this happened......





I felt like I was watching the first episode of The Incredible Hulk......





This is a male Anna's Hummingbird that changed right before my eyes.



And it wasn't just the direction that the sunlight hit him - at least I don't think it was - or was it? 







Well.......Hello there you pretty little thing.....




What a charming beauty!

the things you look at change."

Becoming.....


The world is always changing, evolving....becoming.


Becoming Zen


Most people, especially me, are uncomfortable with the word "change".  


It feels abrupt and unknown as to what may occur. 


Becoming a fig

But "becoming" feels different, like a slow natural evolution.


Becoming an olive tree -  (a sweet gift from Andy & Ashley for Mother's Day!)


I just got my "good" camera back from the shop yesterday.  It was turning itself on, while in the "off" position.  Not too good for the battery or my sanity!


Becoming seed pods that stick to the dogs
Becoming trouble!


























So this morning, I took a walk around the garden with my two Westie's, Mika & Max.


Becoming.....

...an apple



Becoming........grapes


Becoming.....

....a lemon


Becoming.....a strawberry



Becoming.....a mother!  (this was not in my garden this morning but at Camp Richardson General Store)


Becoming......honey


Becoming.....sweet, red, delicious cherries

Becoming.....happy


Becoming....herbs to cook with


Becoming......so happy that you have to lick your nose!
