The forest is full of muppets!  No, no, no, that's just me being silly.  But Joy and I were out on Photo Safari last Friday.  It was a gorgeous day that, of course, started a wee bit darker and overcast than we preferred, but still a gloomy day in the forest is still better than a sunny day a lot of other places, right?  We will call this report, the One Bluebird Report because that is my best photo from Friday.

That one really turned out well. Bluebirds are so pretty anyway that it's hard to take a bad photo of one but I am especially pleased with this one.    We did see a few other birds but not many which was a surprise. Just wasn't a very "birdie" day I suppose. It happens.

It was early enough and overcast enough to make for some spooky tree and sky shots though. I like those. They are kind of moody and emo and well sometimes, it suits me. I'm not always sunshine and roses, y'know, just mostly.  And it was fascinating to watch the forest around us change as the day went from dark and dreary to  so very bright and happy :)

 Most of my shots from that day ended up being botanicals. And the vast marjority of those are wildflowers and therefore I have no idea what their names are.  Some of them are so teeny tiny that they are barely noticeable. Others are big and bold in in your face.  But I love each and every one of them:

And no rando's today!  

As always it was a wonderful hike and a great time!  Hope you enjoyed coming along on the One Bluebird Hike!
