Cranes In The Rain

Venus @ Dawn

Walked out in the rain to see the cranes
In the Tangle Heart Tree sat the pTer
Near the pTer, Daddy Owl had a few words to share
Top of the day to ya! Wile E Coyote seemed to say while sitting on the levee
Eyes turned to the cry of a crane catching up with its cronies
Rio Grande reflected clouds and cranes in the rain

From Gray To Color

Canadian Geese landed so close I barely fit them in the frame.

Sliver Moon between the lines

Wile E. Coyote has a hangdog look in the first photo when he was on the ditch by our gate. He crossed the Clearwater ditch, ran up onto the top of the levee near where I was, and looked a little less hangdog.

The Last Shall Be The First Hoorah

The last shall be the first hoorah
Celebrating Epiphany outside in the cold
Fahrenheit plus 21 equals Celsius minus six
Jamón Iberico y queso Manchego y barras de pan
Cocido Madrileño and Spanish Chocolate
Bonfire roared under stars, planets, clouds
The last celebration of holiday cheer
The first hoorah in the new year
