This blog is to encourage you to get out an play! Although it was a busy day I knew I needed to get out and breath in Nature. I did not leave the lower reaches of Hot Springs Mountain and kept to mostly groomed areas. During a 1 1/2 hour walk on paths and lawns I discovered so many beautiful sights and creatures. Tiny colorful Moths flitted between wildflowers and clover buds. Elusive Clearwing Hummingbird Moths appeared from inside Azaleas and perched on Periwinkle.
Sparrows searched grass for tasty spring Insects and hopped up to see what I was photographing. Northern Mockingbirds flew to close branches to share a sweet song. Caterpillars and Spiders took perilous journeys risking life and limb to cross brick and concrete paths frequented by humans.
The lawns I carefully traversed were filled with beautiful sights often missed when I had scanned the landscape as a whole. We don’t have to find remote places to enjoy the beauty of Nature, if we slow down. We ca stop to watch a colorful patch of flowers or clover and see the life it feeds and shelters. I hope you can take a moment to step outside and breath in Nature.
You can see answers from the Universe in even the smallest Sparrow’s eyes. ~ Lee Hiller

Baby you and your camera captures things that the human eye could never see. I love all animals; and to me a sparrow is a sing-song gray bird and a moth is gray and fluttery but as we can see here there is much more to them; and the wildflowers that look like tiny budding weeds from the human eye, untl they are captured in your lens. Great work! Love ur DH Rick x0x0x0x0
Some super nature shots here! Great website!
Thank You Dennis 🙂
