It's that time to link up with Skywatch Friday
I am looking forward to seeing everyone's beautiful skies, I hope you can join in with Skywatch Friday.
These are some various shots taken from my backyard, some sky shots, some birds and butterfly in the month of August. Sometimes it can be so easy to enjoy the simple things in life.
A blue sky and a pretty Tiger Swallowtail.
This shots reminds me of a hand with the index finger pointing up. Pointing up...that is a good sign to see right?
A cloudy day, but they are cool looking clouds.
A moon shot on the morning of August 24..is the Waning Gibbous 84% full.
My juvie Eastern Wood PeWee.. has a slight crest at the back of the crown, dusky flanks, wingbars and a two-tone bill. I have been watching this bird hanging around the yard lately.
I was able to snap a few photos with different poses of my Eastern Wood PeWee.
Happy Skywatching everyone!

ReplyDeletePięknie wygląda motyl na kwiatku na tle błękitnego nieba. Ptaszek jest słodki. Myślę, że ciekawe chmury deszczu nie przyniosły. Pozdrawiam.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful butterfly on a flower against a blue sky. A bird is sweet. I think the interesting clouds rain did not bring. Yours.
I really like your sky shots! Clouds are just the needed ingredient for beautiful skies, sunsets and sunrises. I like the pointing finger cloud!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous sky shots and pretty bird!
ReplyDeleteThat hand-shaped cloud is amazing Eileen. I love finding shapes in the clouds. And that moon-shot is incredible. Happy Thursday!
