We like flowering trees too

 

 

Like this Mexican Olive.

 

In our yard.

 

Sometimes

 

 

Sometimes a scattering of rose petals is in order.

 

And in the morning, a scattering of bacon bits beside the breakfast taco might do the trick.

 

That’s just the kind of guy I am…

 

Tandem Bicycle

 

 

The bigger stronger person rides in the front to control the bicycle.  The smaller person gets put in the back, so they never get to see anything but the back of the front guy.

 

Here’s a better setup.  Put the front person recumbent.  The bigger person can ride in the back and see over the smaller person in the front, and the front person gets to see everything!

 

 

A little hard to make out the configuration from the photos I took in the park.  This picture I snagged from the web might show it a little better.

 

A soaring caracara

 

 

 

 

A South and Central American bird that just touches southern portions of the U.S.  It’s part of the falcon family, but it’s mostly a scavenger so it’s not very fast.  It will eat something live if it can catch it, but that may not happen very often.

 

 

A Black-crested Titmouse

 

 

 

With a black oil sunflower seed treat.

 

As he navigates through the trees with the greatest of ease.

 

Do the Chachalaca

 

 

You put your left foot in,

 

…you put your left foot out….

 

That’s what it’s all about.

 

You may have already noticed

 

 

 

I really like gnarly old trees.
