Yes....I missed uploading a DP for yesterday!  By the time we finished that 24 hrs. of frivilous fun in the desert area near Ridgecrest (California), I was too tired to tend to my DP; I'm admitting it!! 
Had another outstanding day today; ending our trip by arriving in our own little hometown at sunset!
This is what we were watching while driving the last couple of miles down the highway!  SPECTACULAR!!  What a "welcome home"!   Took the first available offramp in order to catch this shot!!  (Tough choice, though!  This was right after a double rainbow which we also pulled over for!!)

We did spend some discussion as to how difficult it was going to be to choose a DP for yesterday, and today!!  Over the next several days, I will be using shots from this trip as DP's, as I add photos to the gallery.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, LADIES!
Blessings to you and yours!

Today I visited with my neighbors, Chuck and Lisa. I found these cuties amongst their wonderful landscape!

I'm getting closer to that 'hard-to-manage Hummer shot!!!  This lil' cutie and I dined together this evening out on the deck!!
I was not in 'ready position, with camera in hand'; my plan didn't include a hummingbird practice session tonight.  But I was easily derailed when she kept coming back to the feeder, and didn't seem to be bothered by movement on my part. She returned very soon after I had come back out with the camera.  
This particular feeder is usually being watched over by a very territorial male,  who does not like being photographed! However, his little girlfriend here was posing! I just need to figure out how to get focused shots!?  I am curious as to where he was, and why she was being allowed so much time at the feeder?
Anyone care to offer suggestions re: focus issues, I'd be very appreciative!
BTW: This is a fairly tight crop, with slight increase in constrast after B&W conversion.

Hey...KurtPreston!!  Tonight, I didn't even catch a glimpse of that 'rare, neon, all electric hummer'!

I started a new gallery for Hummingbirds

 I'll begin creating a new gallery tomorrow morning! 
 Not quite sure what title to give the gallery; "Proud and Propitious Poultry"?!

Day 2-Same Gladiola stalk as yesterday's DP, 21 hours later.  This is SOOC, in late afternoon sunlight.  The shot from yesterday was taken after dark, with flash.

Late this afternoon, I was thinking about a DP for today and decided to find y'all another example of what some of our local trees are looking like right now! Chose to drive eastward a few minutes out of town so that where ever I found a pretty cluster of trees, the photo wouldn't be cluttered with storefronts, telephone poles, houses, etc.  This is the entrance to one of our local B & B's:

CuriousCamel:  this one is for you !!

While visiting Aruba, a couple of years ago, I spent some wonderfully peaceful time at 'The Butterfly Farm'.  There were many different varieties; each with their own delicate and colorful beauty!
I was there in December; apparently Christmas is 'the season' for the Aruban butterflies!!!
As Dreamhat so eloquently stated:  "the Dance of Life"!

I included 'Day 4/Gladiola' in my Contender gallery
