Well, I hope Rudolph left a little something in your stocking, too.

Move over, unless you have to shovel sunshine you have 20,000 unexpected houseguests headed your way.

Great pics.

Thanks for the beautiful pictures SWAMPSNIPER. We enjoyed them.

There are times around here I wish I had the equipment to reciprocate with pictures of around the Ranch. The Acacia’s are starting their annual bloom now as well Cymbidium Orchids. The Mexican Marigold’s are blooming as well the Daisies.

It has been lovely here hasn't it...

..I'm on the east central side of the peninsula, and we have a little lake where egrets, heron, water turkeys, turtles and the occasional gator play...

The sunsets & weather have been delicious!

There were hundreds of robins at my sister’s farm yesterday, headed south We saw a young four point buck on our way to deliver a late batch of Christmas tamales.

There are a few Carolina wrens visiting again this year. I was afraid they had been killed off by the red tailed hawk that hunted sparrows from the pecan tree in our yard.

Thanks for the pictures, SS.

Thank you, SS for your continued photos. I had missed you.
I’m in Los Angeles, I wish I could describe the dramatic weather we’ve had lately. Snow and frost, so unusual. (I’d insert a pix, but it would be a red X.)
