Sunday Challenge " New Beginnings"

Wow another week has shot past...it's enough to make your head spin. The challenge this week "New Beginnings" The only thing around here new is going on in the Greenhouses so without further ado this is what I have for this week. The first two pics are of my friends Greenhouse, she is out in Canal Flats...The Briar Patch. They  do really nice Baskets and her plants are well tended...all in all they do a great job.
She is so organized and everything is so clean and tidy. I covet her Greenhouses...well at least the set up, see how she hangs her Baskets I can't do that because I don't have all those cross bars...plus she can hang way more Baskets than I can and her houses are smaller than mine.Oh well If ever I am in the market for another Greenhouse I now know what to look for....she keeps telling me I can buy hers....uh huh ...just as soon as I win the lottery. Well anyhow on to my stuff. You will not see any shots of my Greenhouse lay out........ Simply Picasso Petunia




Well that's what's new in my Greenhouse, I will leave you a few shots from the Briar Patch as well.
                                                                      
                                                                   
So that's the New Beginnings from around home and elsewhere. I'll check you all out later.
Have A Great Week

Sunday Challenge " Birdstalking"

I was thinking this challenge was going to be a cake walk.....not...as it turns out at least in my case it requires ...first birds and then a certain amount of skill and decent equipment.....well three strikes and yup I'm out. I was so excited last Sunday I had my first Robin sighting and then to see this weeks challenge. I could just burst with joy ...Spring is coming the birds are singing all around me...could it get any better, well of course it could. I can hear Robins and see them flying away but do you think I can get a picture....not a chance this was the best I could do...they are mocking me it is quite frustrating. I have been chasing this one around for quite awhile and finally had to call it a day.I did a lot of stalking....I think I'm not very good at it. I will keep trying and hopefully get something better..and will do another post at another time.I'm kinda stalked out.

This is a Bald Eagle but as you can see he got pretty far away before I could get a shot.

So after giving up on the garbage pics.....I went where I knew I could at least get a real picture of a bird....where did I go ...to the resident Pigeon of course...and no stalking involved.




Well that's it for me sorry for the weak effort...I take that back I put a lot of effort into it but with poor results...believe me it wasn't for lack of trying.I will check you all out later.
Have A Great Week
