Icelandic Horses~

What I am fighting for and what I want to be able to get back to.

The Black horse tolts just like Dyfra did and I seriously miss riding her.

And another Icelandic video below.

Indian Fantails return home~

My Indian Fantails return Home.
Theo and Astra above.

Theo and Astra in the middle,  hen offspring on either side.
Will keep them in until their feet heal.
They have a 32" long outside flight cage for future use.

 Sadly, Theo lost a foot while he was away.
Have his leg in a padded blue wrap.

Think he enjoys being home again.

Same Kite hen, slightly different lighting. She has meds on her feet and she lost a number of lower tail feathers.
Photos do not do her justice.

The photo below, is before this youngster left home. 
Her tail has been cut, so will get a current photo of her 
once she molts out.

Below are a couple of the hens I bought from another breeder, when I missed having my pigeons.
Next 3 photos are of Theo's sister.

One below is super tiny...
Not sure if I am going to raise Mindian fantails again, just depends on how it goes with my health.
But at least I can enjoy being with and watching them again.Also have a Silver hen but I am going to wait until her tail grows out to take a photo of her..

Who knows, maybe I can get a Doctor to take me seriously one day. Figure out what needs to be done, so I can finally show my birds.

Beautiful Roses ~

Beautiful flowers DH bought me... I love Lavender Roses!

Think the only way I could grow Roses like I did in WA and in Oregon, is have a totally temperature controlled green house.
Maybe some day.

Napoleon Exhibit~

Yesterday, I went to the Fine Art museum to see the Napoleon exhibit. 

The Art was just stunning, seriously, the paintings were beyond impressive.

Went as soon as it opened, the elevator that normally takes people down to that level did not work.

So had to use the other one... and we pretty much had about 3/4's of the gallery all to ourselves! That was a real treat!!

Everyone was very kind, even had a gentleman that worked there walk the tickets up to the front for us.

I used the New to me iphone SE camera, no flash.... rather impressed with its camera.

Impossible to catch the incredible detail in these works 

of Art.

The super fine detail in this painting was breath taking.

Painting above is of George Washington.

Napoleon above and one of the hats he wore below.

The carving was just.... well... no words.

If you are in the Richmond VA area I would highly recommend seeing this exhibit.

Orchid~

My little misfit discount $1.00 Orchid is doing well

 and setting out a 2nd set of blooms.
Might need to search for a few more.

Waterfall Spider web~

Waterfall Spider web cascading down from the 

spent pansy's to my Japaneses Maple.

(photo was taken through the dirty window.)

Baby Birds~

The House Finches nested late this year and laid 5 eggs.

 Has been a few weeks since I could check up on them 

and they are basically feathered out.

Feel seriously guilty that I disturbed them.

And the Look I received.

 Did put this little one back in the nest, the other 4, 

lets just say did not need my help.
