So... what was at the end of my lens?

Hi Everyone.  Happy Monday.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

Thanks to all of you who played along with the "guess what was at the end of my lens".  Lou and I both loved reading your comments and suggestions on what it might be.  From blue birds to dinosaurs and everything in between.  I really had fun with it and am so glad that you did, too

So... want a closer look.... let's get a half-way view:

Gettingcloser (1 of 1)

Now.. I think you can all guess what it is.... want to be sure?

Gettingcloser (1 of 1)-2

and here's another shot:

Gettingcloser (1 of 1)-5

When you see how majestic these amazing birds are, you can totally see why the US chose the Bald Eagle as their national symbol.  Lou and I were so thrilled.  Lou saw him flying in across the wetland and called for me to get my camera.  It certainly says a lot about my new camera that it can zoom in as far as it does.  In case you are wondering how far - let me remind you of the photo that started this fun:-)

Whereisthebaldie (1 of 1)

Now that you know where he is... if you look at about 11 oclock and focus your eye toward the far trees, you can just see a brown outline.  Then look at the earlier photos in this post - pretty amazing for a non-professional camera, I think.

And yes, Shirley.... this is in color - it's about as much color as we get here in Minnesota at this time of year.... meaning.. not a heck of a lot!  It's brown.... and brown... and another shade of brown :-)   However, on the close-up of the Baldie, you can see a little bit of green peeping up around one of the water holes.

Now... who won the Paper Pumpkin package?  Let's see.  Lou chose a number between 1 and 26 and he choose..... Drum Roll, please!

Great card as usual, Jaydee! I don't see anything, but I will guess little tiny green leaves starting to come out on the trees! I love all your beautiful nature pictures!!

Beth, please could you send me an email with your snail mail address and I will get your package off to you.  

Ann, please could you send me your address, too - you were a winner for sharing the name of your ancestor buried in Westminster!

I honestly can't tell you enough how much I appreciate you all.  YOU are the only reason that I continue to do my blog posts.  I am always surprised, amazed - and delighted - that I have managed to "meet" so many amazing people through my blog.  You inspire me to continue to do this with every comment that you make.

I'll be back on Wednesday with another blog post - and a card.  In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers to those of you who need a little lift tonight.

Hugs

Jaydee
