Skywatch Friday - Eagles in the Sky

It's been a while since I've posted pictures 
of 'our' eagles here on the lake, 
so I thought I would share these for Skywatch Friday.


(Click on the pictures to enlarge them.)
I liked the above and below photos because they included 
both the eagles in the sky and the one on the top of the flagpole.


Plus, I found the cloud formations to be interesting.


And this shot, above, is of a helicopter and eagle. The helicopter was from a local news station. It arrived to shoot footage of the rescue of a drowning man by two 15 year-old residents. 
They revived the man using CPR 
until paramedics arrived on the scene. 
The man was then transported to the hospital 
and the teens lauded for their heroic efforts. 

from around the globe.
Have a wonderful weekend, wherever you are!

Yellow Fuzzy

So yesterday I saw this little guy crawling along the driveway.
(Click on the images to enlarge them.)

He was so cute and fuzzy, I just wanted to run my finger over him.
But I didn't. Instead I took a couple of photos of him.

 
Does anyone know what type caterpillar this is?
I found a cool website to help ID it, 
but none it came up with 
were found in the Pacific Northwest.
So I'm calling it 'Yellow Fuzzy'.
For now. Anyway.

What do you think?

Flower Focus Friday or GBBD part deux


As I visited other people's blogs on GBBD
I saw colors galore!
I realized most of the flower blooms
I posted that day were
in a very limited color palate.
Yet there are plenty more colors
that deserve recognition, so here are a few.
Lights, camera, close up...
(Please click on the images to see them really close up!)

Sedum


Nasturtium


Coreopsis


Echinacea


Guess!


Yet another sunflower.

Hope your day is all sunshine and flowers!
