Happy Feathery Friday!

It's Feathery Friday!! Time for photos of my little feathered guy :-)

Yummy!

Yoda

I'm a little Tea Pot....

Getting scritches...I know he looks like I'm breaking his neck, but I swear that he's turning his head himself....he'll turn it completely upside down to get his chin scratched where he likes it ;-)
Getting Scritches

Such a poser! Even when getting scritches, he strikes a pose when he hears the focus beep of the camera!!
Such a poser!

Charlie knows that Yoda is OFF LIMITS! So when he's close, she is NOT comfotable....I wonder if it might have something to do with her remembering our previous birds who would bite her inquisitive puppy nose...Hmmmm.... LOL

Surviving Fay

Yep, we're surviving Tropical Storm Fay. Boy is it rainy and windy though! Hopefully that'll be all we get :-)

What better way to spend part of a rainy day...his new favorite pasttime...
Xbox

It's also fun to play in puddles, in between rainstorms that is :-)

First Day of Kindergarten!

Oh my goodness! My baby's in Kindergarten!!!

He had an AWESOME first day, and just loves it! He can't wait until they start working and learning! LOL

First Day of Kindergarten!!!

Kindergarten, here he comes!

A quick look back, but only because I begged him for it, he was ready to go!!!
A quick look back...

He went straight to his class

Found his name

At his desk!

Family Portraits on the Beach

What a fun and awesome family this is! Tara contacted me about doing her extended family photos a couple of weeks ago...it's the first time in a long time that the family will be all together. And in honor of Mom's birthday too!
Once again, she came through with some cool colors! I just love how the orange pops against the beach...so pretty. And the overcast skies just made the colors so much better!!
Enjoy your sneak peek guys!!

K & Papa

These guys were too funny! They had me cracking up the whole time we were on the beach!
What a fun idea for a sibling shot!! :-)
Siblings

Haha, Mom says she hates when they do this...and she was sure surprised when they unexpectedly picked her up! The guys think it's the best though...I think every guy loves to scare their mom every once in a while! LOL

Horse in a Pasture

We went yesterday to take photos of a friend's old barn for her, and she tells us that the people who live on the property don't mind if we're there, just please don't bother the horse.
Horse?!?!?!?!
I was immediately excited...I love farm photography, and have been wanting to get into it more (as evidenced by my cow and sunset on the farm photos from last weekend).

So, we get to the area of the barn, and who do we meet?
A horse who REALLY wanted his portrait done! LOL

Horse in Pasture

Hello There

Horse with Barn

Take my picture!

Horse with Barn Bokeh

I'm telling you, this horse was in serious need of portraits...a few minutes later I hear "Can you please get this horse by you, he's blocking my photo of the barn!"
LOL
Could you please move?

And had I known that this dragonfly was going to be such a poser, I'd have taken the macro lens!

Happy Feathery Friday!

Ok, so it's a day late. Last night when I got on the computer to post this, I prompty fell asleep in my chair! LOL

I'm in a photography group that posts photos of our feathered friends on fridays....this was my entry in this weeks post for Olympic Rings themed photos.
Rings? Did someone say rings?

And here were a couple that I liked, but didn't make the cut for entry into the theme...
What?!?! I can eat them?!?!

I will hide here I think....

And this, I just liked
