Some birds I have tons of photos of and others I only have one or two. This has been a very fun project to work on. After bird photography is organized I will move to flowers.
What projects are you working on?

A moment from my day, organizing my photos.
A moment from my day.
Do you take time to rest and relax?
One thing I do is color a picture. I got a daily planner and each week I have a new picture to color. I have gotten behind so yesterday I spent time working on a few of the pages.
Here is one of them.

Pre diabetic the foods I no longer eat.
When you go on the internet you see
Tons of advertisements on how to magically lose weight.
I have lost 9 pounds and there was no magic drink,
No magic pill.
There was the decision to stop eating food that do not
Provide nutrients to my body.
No more little candy bars mindlessly eaten at work.
No more chips with my lunch. No more chips while watching television.
No more cake.
No more cookies or brownies or fudge.
Leaving these foods behind helped me lose 8 pounds.
I also exercise 5 days a week and I have added strength training.
The month of August I started my ban on French fries.
Oh how I love ❤️ you French fries.
I will miss you French fries 🍟.
Yesterday my daughter and I got takeout and I told her we
Have to choose a place that doesn’t have fries 🍟.
I want to lose 3 more pounds.
Which means I need to be mindful of what I eat.

A moment from my day. The weird fish at the aquarium.
We spent time sitting in the shark tunnel. This fish kept swimming by us. It looks like it has a human face. I called it the Pinocchio Fish because of its long nose.
It just made me smile.

A moment in my day; customer service return conundrum.
Moments make up our minutes, hours, days and weeks.
I thought I would try to share a moment from my day with you and see how many I can share in the next month and maybe year.
Here is my moment from Monday.
I work in customer service for a retail store. Part of my job is to return items for customers. On Monday a customer came in with the above moldy bread to return. This customer let me know she didn’t like the quality of the bread. She bought it possibly 4 weeks ago, but due to not shopping at the store often she kept the bread and receipt to return when she came back shopping.
She didn’t seem to think that her moldy bread science experiment might not be right to return. It took a huge effort on my part not to laugh at her. The bread only cost $6.00, if it was me I would have just thrown it away.
I did the return, then took a photo of the bread to show my store manager.
I am amazed at what people do sometimes. Would you have returned the bread?

Lady with a camera.
We took an early morning walk yesterday.
We saw an American Mink.
Lots of sunflowers, which makes me jealous because
They can grow in the wild
But die in my garden.
I got two new birds for my life list,
A sage thrasher.
And a western wood pewee.
Always glad to see a new bird.

Taken with my little camera. My New England adventure.
I went home to visit my parents and made sure
I had my camera ready.
They have lots of birds in their backyard.
They are not allowed to have bird feeders
Due to bears.
This eastern blue bird had a little house and some babies.
The American gold finch did not want
To stay still for a good photo.
I’ve been wanting to get a good crow photo.
They have a family living in the back woods.
On the drive to Maine I had to beg Mom to pull the car over so I could photograph the cormorant and loons.
I heard this weird noise and it was a family of river otters.
It’s nice to have a hobby that you can pretty much do anywhere.
Hope you enjoy the photos.
