last night I spent a few minutes at the front door trying to get a photo of the tiny sliver of moon and Jupiter…
I should have got out the tripod, lol…
it was fun to watch as the moon slowly was covered by clouds…

now that the pond is empty and covered with the tarp, the camera isn’t really needed, so it came into the house…
happily, the bottom of it fit perfectly on the camera tripod…
set it up by the window where the bird feeder is attached…
this is particularly good now as the mandevilla blocks the view through the window…
looking forward to getting some great views of the guests at the feeder;-)…

yesterday a lot of time was spent at the front window with the camera on the tripod…
first up was this cute downy woodpecker… often hard to get a photo as they move fairly quickly, but caught this shot…
the gray squirrels have been busy at the base of the feeder… their tails are so pretty…
and finally, the red squirrels were around… they are very cute but not too friendly with the rest of the critters…
such fun to watch all of these visitors;-)…

eclipse, new doctor, ready, rose, tripod
last night before I went to bed I set the camera up on the tripod so it would be ready to take pictures of the eclipse… I didn’t set the alarm because I can usually wake up on demand…
apparently I needed my sleep, as I didn’t wake up until 6:30…
got a few nice shots of a colleague’s birthday rose…
ended the day with an appointment where I met a new doctor as mine is away sick… was feeling quite nervous, worried that my blood pressure might shoot up… happily it didn’t and I was pleased with my time with him…
it was warm as I drove home and I enjoyed seeing how much snow has melted… yay…
