I am going to show a true potpourri of photos today.
My saying that the deer always look back was proved again last week. She has her tail in flag position to leave but still had to check on me.
Mac did an arty post today and I'm going to also. I call this "Looking Through the Queen". Do you know why?

I always like to have photos of bonfires. My son started a big fire when I visited. He has a woods with a lot to burn.

This was a visitor to the fire pit coals before the fire started. I thought this was a neat pose. He didn't "croak" because we took him away from the fire.

There was one morning when the dew was all over the spider webs. The construction on top of this bush was pretty cool. You can see the hole for the home on the left center.

I do hope you enjoyed my mixed up post.
I like the subjects of each of these photos, but I must admit I'm not sure why you call your arty post "Looking Through the Queen".
ReplyDeleteHandsome frog.
ReplyDeleteLooking Through The Queen has me stumped.
Magic Tom.
ReplyDeleteMaybe something to do with a Looking Glass or Mirror??
Great photos, Tom. Glad you got that toad out of the way BEFORE the bonfire.
ReplyDeleteLooking through the Queen?????? I have no idea. Of course, I'm not very artsy.

I love the potpourri of photos! Glad the frog lived - hopefully he finds his princess! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the deer! And I have always been a fan of bon fires... whenever we go out fishing, we always try to have one if possible!!
ReplyDeleteBTW!... I'm finally on the way out to the post office... =)
I love bonfires, too. I told Roger the other day I would like to have one...just love sitting by a fire any where, any time. Even in hot weather.
ReplyDeleteThese are fun. I love the frog. He's a real ham. And those webs? Must have been a spider conference.
ReplyDeleteNice post, and you are right deer, nearly always look back.
ReplyDeleteLove your black squirrel header!
FG-Neat shot's! The spider web was pretty amazing. And I do like the look your visitor was giving you..lol very cute! I liked the variety in today's post! See you for sky watch! :)

Love these Tom. I am glad the froggie didn't croak. :) That spiderweb is really lovely.
ReplyDeleteI cannot think of anything I like more than sitting around a fire. Here in Africa one is so much part of our tradition when we are in the bush. It is the heart of everything. Best of all is when you have finished eating and sit around it under the stars telling stories.How I miss it!!
Splendid potpourri, I've enjoyed every picture!
ReplyDeleteA nice eclectic series. I believe you're right about the deer always looking back. I to have noticed this phenomina. So glad you didn't let the frog croak. Love the dewed spider web. Is the Queen reflected some way?
ReplyDeleteGreat potpourri this week Tom. Looking through the Queen's Eye is what came to my mind...
ReplyDeleteFor all you wondering about the name on the second photo. I was doing a macro of the center of the Queen Anns Lace and had focused through the flower to the stems of the blooms.
ReplyDeleteALL great photo's, Tom!!
ReplyDeleteQueen Anne's Lace. Yes, I can see it now. Good one!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos !! Great location to visit !! Thanks for sharing the beauty.Unseen Rajasthan
ReplyDeleteI was out taking pictures of fawns in my yard today. Two of them playing and eating my grass.
ReplyDeleteIn my experience the deer do always look back before they run.
Those kinds of spider webs were always in the bushes where I parked at my school - creepy.
I'm here late but I did know the Queen's Anne Lace. I kept reading the comments and nobody knew and got to yours and you had already told. :) I probably knew because I had been taking pictures of it too recently.
Nice set of potpourri shots!
Cool grass spider's web. Looks like you're enjoying summer!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the eclectic mix. That spiders web is truly amazing, so dense.
ReplyDeleteI loved all of your mixed up photos in this post. My faves are the frog and the cool spider web!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the spiderwebs and the Queen Anne's Lace! (Possibly my favorite wildflower--maybe because we don't have any here--but that would be a tough call.)
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling pretty ADHD these days with the (wonderful) heat, guests and home repairs.
ReplyDeleteI love the varied posts!!!
I enjoyed all the shots-including the Queen's Anne Lace! Glad you saved froggy : )
ReplyDeleteInteresting pictures, Tom. I enjoyed them all. Especially the deer looking back at you.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea why you call it "Looking through the Queen".
I love the eyes of that lovely deer. These animals are so graceful.
ReplyDeleteI only wish I could have been there!
