nature still life #1, originally uploaded by Lizzie~Belle.

I've had quite the adventuresome day. I started out by going for a long walk in the woods, where I finally put together a nature still life (I had the idea ages ago).

I also saw some actual wildlife...

A hawk blessed me with its presence, sitting in a tree after flying over my head.

This frog actually sat still while I took its portrait.

There was quite a crop of ducklings in the park this year.

I managed to capture a couple of butterflies with my camera as well.

After lunch, I walked down to the bank to get quarters for laundry. There just so happened to be the grand opening of a new cupcake bakery across the street; all they had left was cookies & cream, but I didn't mind a bit. It was delicious.

Just doing my bit to support local business, you know. ;)

Late this afternoon, I remembered that I needed cotton balls (to remove my nail color), so I walked down to CVS. I met a new doggy in the neighborhood, a very friendly shepherd of some sort who leaned up against me in a doggy hug.

On the next street, a friendly kitty kept trying to follow me; I had to stop a car on the street and put her back in her yard! She let me add to my cats on porches series first, though.

On another street, I came across another kitty who allowed me to take its picture as well.

writeonq inspired me with her lovely story today; I made a few encouraging notes, which I will leave around town for people to find and hopefully be cheered by.

That was much more fun that going to the gem show again. :)
