Club Contest

My daily Photos have been a bit sporadic this week - more work than hours in a day.  Last Sunday we had our Annual Photo Club Picture Contest and I had 2 photos which placed with an Honorable Mention.

People/Portraits - "Nice Hat"

Panoramic "Mills City"

Scrubbers

Netting Waiting for "The Hook"

Hooked

My spouse makes "scrubbers" for her group at church, "Chat and Sew" and one of their projects is making these kitchen scrubbers.  They are quite the popular item.  It's not uncommon for a mother to come in and buy 20 of them to send to her girls....  They are frequently sold out, as in this week, so production has begun...

A Good Night To Stay In

Somebody Is Jealous...

Hey There...

Looks like one of the cardinals is jealous...

Kitty Kat

Sad Eyes

Such sad eyes - I think (he) or (she) was disappointed that the birds were staying away - either that or his (her) butt was cold...!

I get excited when I see 1 maybe 2 cardinals at my bird feeder in Waterloo.  At my friends, Tom and Linda, in Burlington, there were literally dozens of cardinals.  It seemed that every where I looked there were cardinals - bluejays, woodpeckers, snow birds, cats, cows, and an eagle even flew by...

Female Cardinal

Eagles Everywhere

 My friends Tom and Linda have welcomed me with open arms, fed me, patched up a cut I managed to give myself, and Tom patiently waiting as I shot at least 600 Eagle photos.  I also have photos of cardinals and a variety of other fowl and architecture.

There was no way I could choose just one so I have put a few over on my Flickr account - http://www.flickr.com/photos/rallenhill/sets/72157625759564517/.  Enjoy the ones here, but take a minute to visit the other site.

I went to the "Eagle Weekend" in Keokuk, Iowa last weekend - evidently the Eagles didn't know it was Eagle Weekend because they have all been hanging out in Burlington.

Consolidation

I have waaaaaaaaaay to many sites and a goal of mine in 2010 is to consolidate my Writing Blog, "Windmills of my Mind", Flickr, FaceBook, this Project 365 Blog and my RALLENHILL site.

I am experimenting with Wordpress. For the time being I will be publish photos to both this blog and my new WordPress based site. If you wish to view the photos on the new site click on the BLOG Link on the right hand side of the page. To follow the new site via RSS Feed click on the link towards the bottom of the page..
