The Leftovers



Leftover photos from my sunny November sabbatical...

The beginning.



Splendid skies. 



Tiny tulips. 



Fish Hawks



I'm rich!



A gentle Grebe.



Horse shoe crab.



A kinky snake. 



Wild wood.



Broken boundaries. 



Offerings. 



Bark.


Birds of a feather.


A rare sand-gater. It even has teeth!


A beautiful beach butterfly!



This live shell was bigger than a man's hand. 


Osprey feathers perhaps?



I didn't expect to see chickens in the parking lot of remote Rookery Swamp. 


Wild and weathered Lover's Key. 


The fallen. 


The slanted and sparkly. 



The glorious end!

Marvelous shots here! And that sand gator had me for a second. For just a flash I wondered if there was such a critter.

And these are the left-overs ... my goodness! The sand dollar shot is worth a million bucks (LOL)! The snake is fascinating - never seen so many kinks in one snake! The gator and the butterfly - mad creative! Happy New Year to you!
