Stream of Consciousness Saturday is hosted by Linda G. Hill. The prompt for today is “start with a noun”.
Pictures are worth
a thousand words.
I’ve heard this all my life.
So off I go with
camera in hand.
To write my thousand words.

One Word Photo Challenge: Hummingbird
Sandhill Cranes
I have been staying with friends in Orlando for several weeks and have really gotten into photographing the many birds in the area.
The other day we went to lunch and on the way home I spotted four Sandhill Cranes on the side of the road. I got so excited and couldn’t wait till we got home so I could jump into my car and go back to capture them with my camera.
All of a sudden Dottie turned the car around and took me back to where the birds were. She told me that by the time I got back by myself they would be gone. Now that’s a real friend, indulging my obsession to take pictures of birds by the side of the road.
That made me smile. But then, as I sat in the car right in front of the birds snapping away, one of the males spread his wings and I got a great shot. I am still smiling, and I think I will smile every time I look at this picture.

The Heron
Weekly Photo Challenge: Transient
This heron visit the marshes of the lake in Kissimmee. These beautiful birds come and go throughout the area visiting little ponds. If you aren’t careful, they will walk right in front of your car crossing the street as they travel from one body of water to the next.
