    Macro Monday: Flutter by Callaway Gardens

    Owl butterflies at Callaway Resorts and Gardens, Pine Mountain, Georgia. They are beautiful!

    The large spots on the wings resemble the eyes of owls scaring off predators.

  • Throwback Thursday: The Hidden Traveler

    Throwback Thursday: The Hidden Traveler

    No hopping today, seems I caught me a ride.

    One day as I traveled a little side road, US-280W, on my way to Glennville from Savannah, I had to stop and photograph what I called Lost America.  It was like time had slowed down just enough for cars to catch a glimpse of yester-year.  I jumped out, iPad Air in hand and snapped away.  Walking back to my car, I spotted a stowaway.  A hidden traveler.  It was a little grasshopper on my tire by the side of the road.

    Now where did that little green guy think he was going?  Even more, where had he been? Did I miss the signpost up ahead that read… “The Twilight Zone”.

  • Macro Monday: Hello Tiny Friend

    Macro Monday: Hello Tiny Friend

    Stopping to “smell the roses” earlier this week, and getting real close to one, I noticed something. On a petal of this yellow rose was a tiny green grasshopper. “Hello tiny friend!”, I greeted him. Such a beautiful sight, the yellow and the green!

    Macro Monday: Lady Bugs at An Orchard Market

    Multicolored Ladybugs

    How I love to travel to North Georgia. Mountain cabins, towns with trains traveling down Main Street and apple orchards! Making my way to the Panorama Apple House, Panorama Orchards in Ellijay is a must. All the orchards in the area keeps them continually stocked with apple goodness.

    While there I have been know to eat a fresh fried apple pie or maybe a peach and soda pop out side on the deck. This particular day in November we were joined by many multicolored ladybugs. We shared our picnic table not the fruit pies!

    Macro Monday: I Met a Stink Bug in Ellijay

    Brown Marmorated Stink Bug

    These insects are an invasive bugs from China, Japan and Korea that now live in North Georgia. I was enjoying fresh fried apple pies at the famous Panorama Farms Market, better know as the Panorama Apple House, located in Ellijay. This little bug happened to be crawling on our picnic table.

    Thank goodness he did not display the “stinky” characteristic of his name!

  • A Spring Thing

    A Spring Thing

    [ngg src=”galleries” ids=”18″ display=”masonry” ngg_triggers_display=”always”]

    A Prayer in Spring

    Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
    And give us not to think so far away
    As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
    All simply in the springing of the year.

    Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
    Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
    And make us happy in the happy bees,
    The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.

    And make us happy in the darting bird
    That suddenly above the bees is heard,
    The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
    And off a blossom in mid air stands still.

    For this is love and nothing else is love,
    The which it is reserved for God above
    To sanctify to what far ends He will,
    But which it only needs that we fulfill.

    Robert Frost
