I was so excited to visit Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge for the first time over the weekend. Bombay Hook is in Delaware, is a nationally recognized birding spot along the Atlantic flyway, and is a refuge and breeding ground for birds and other wildlife. It is the most wonderful place! Mostly tidal salt marsh mixed with upland habitat, the refuge attracts birders from across the country! I added a few species to my life list and the weather could not have been more perfect for an afternoon of birding and photography! I will definitely be going back and hopefully will see more wading birds like this Great Blue Heron!

My favorite week in the garden is right now … when the honeysuckle is in full bloom.
Oh so fragrant!

I could see the Iris’ in the garden through the living room window and thought about a composition that would include the open flowers as well as the buds. This was the result – photographed with the Lensbaby Velvet 56.

I was photographing Iris’ in my garden and didn’t notice this little guy who was intent on watching me work. My, what big eyes you have! I’m not a big fan of insects, but this one is kind of cute! (Lensbaby Velvet 56)

Recently my Lensbaby Velvet 56 was focused on the soft curvy petals of a Gerbera Daisy. I think I have given it too much water as the flowers are really droopy. I need to let it dry out a bit before watering it again. I will admit that I don’t have a very green thumb!
