I’m happy to be hosting Sunday Stills this week for the Color Challenge: Jade Green, Light Green, Peridot. My feature photo is a Fire King mug in Jadeite, collectible glassware from the 1950’s.

Little Anna’s through the Window
I have many other things I could be sharing on this dull Monday morning, but instead, I bring to you this flying jewel, a handsome Anna’s Hummingbird, seen through my office window. A welcome distraction. ~ Susanne

Wet and Green
Rain is falling and clouds are hanging low. Grass is wet, my feet are too. Young birds all aflutter at the beaver pond, follow their mamas from branch to branch waiting for food. Do they belong? Only she knows. Water, water everywhere and all… Continue Reading “Wet and Green”
