Note Card Party

I'm participating in an blog "Note Card Party" at A Haven for Vee.  Bloggers who wish to participate should post 4 photos that would make nice note cards, but they can only be photos that have appeared on your blog in the past.  I've published hundreds if not thousands of photos, mostly food related, but I thought I'd share some of my favorite non-food photos today.  These were taken either with my Panasonic Lumix FZ28 (point and shoot) or my Nikon D7000 with a Nikkor 18-200mm telephoto lens.

This is a momma robin feeding her 4 babies in a nest she built outside my office window last year.  I sat in the sun for hours to get this shot, but it was worth it.  Incidentally, the same robin just hatched 3 eggs in the same nest yesterday.

I saw this field of wildflowers on the side of the road last year and couldn't resist pulling over to capture them.

This huge, stunning fuchsia was growing in the gardens of an English Manor where my husband and I stayed during out trip to England.  It was well over 8 feet tall and 8 feet wide, and was covered with thousands of little buds that were just beginning to open.

This tulip was sitting on my dining room table just a few weeks ago.  The sunshine was illuminated the delicate petals in such a beautiful way that I had to snap a quick pic.

Thanks for visiting.
