More Beautiful Eggs ~


Blue copper Marans Eggs are the most dark, the one
medium dark is a Welsummer, 
the a pinkish Speckled Sussex,
Couple of Buff Orpington eggs and Golden Comet eggs.
Have some more Marans and Welsummers on order, 
as I love their egg color.

Wild Canaries ~


Put the thistle feeder out and it just sat there for a month.... finally one morning I saw one wild canary... 
then the next day, two... couple of days later.....   
 think they told their friends!
Cats and humans love watching them.

First Blue Copper Maran Egg!



First Blue Copper Maran Egg, smaller one in center.  Can't wait for the next one.
Then far left, Speckled Sussex, next is a Welsummer and the two on the far right, bantam Ameracuna.  
Eggs look a little lighter than they are, because of the lighting


Morning clouds ~



Couple of weeks ago, I came out and saw this...
A beautiful storm cloud morning
with bright sunshine streaming through..

National Gallery of Fine Art in DC ~



Went to the National Gallery in DC yesterday... 
holy grief... if you have Menieres, 
bring noise cancelling head phones. Is very loud.

Not a bad Gallery.. 
Glad they had wheel chairs... won't of been able to see it all, without one. 
(though a scooter would be a lot nicer)

One very cool thing I saw, Leonardo da Vinci, 
Ginevra de' Benci painting.
Is the only da Vinvci painting in the USA.

You can see the painting on This Link.

Did not take a photo of it, because it is so old. But here are some photos,, of other things we saw.











They had some neat Garden spaces too.





Was a long day but worth it.
Also ended up with some free parking in a handicapped spot, very close to the museum.
Allowed me to walk a little longer, before needing a wheel chair.

Dyfra ~


Photos of Dyfra this morning.
 Yes, she has a fly sheet on... she has to have something on if I want to ride.
Should re name her ... Pig Pen. LOL

Trying to get my horses' to play, with me just there....

I just ride her walk, tolt (she has a good range of speed, while keeping the tempo clean) and canter. She does have a good Trot.
