Here the trail cam took my picture after I put the card back in it and was watching to see if it worked. It did, but only for about six pictures. I don't know why. I reset it today to try again.
I feed the birds and in return they pose for me. I have a zoom lens and Photoshop, so I can make the subjects look closer than they really are.
Here we see a gold finch and a Carolina Wren, followed by a pair of cardinals. I'm also showing some blossoms from a tree in our yard.

Signs, Signs: I noticed these signs at 7-Eleven. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, they recommend using a napkin to touch screens and nozzles, and you cannot bring in your own cup to fill.
I'm washing my hands frequently and I keep a pack of pre-moistened wipes handy for between wash-ups.
The final picture shows a decorative sign that I spotted on a corner in Front Royal. I love it when I come across something delightful!
...I'm surprised that 7-Eleven is still operating their soda machines, Costco has shut them down. Take care Linda, be safe.
ReplyDeleteThere is always something around to brighten the day if you look
ReplyDeleteHello, I will always enjoy watching the birds.
ReplyDeleteCute yard art. Take care and stay well. Have a great day!
Linda,
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to the store in more than a week. Usually, DH stops in the evenings on the way home from work. Right now, he's still going to the office. Most are working from home but it's so much easier for him to be there since we don't have a good place for him to set up here. There are many working from home or those who can't are being laid off temporarily (let's hope). I like to say it surprises me that anyone would want to still use a soda machine anywhere but it doesn't. People are generally don't care enough to think about the what ifs. Even before this mess started I noticed people making no effort to cover their mouths when sneezing, coughing, or just clearing their throats. Further more those who aren't doing the sneezing, coughing, or clearing of throats don't make any effort to walk around it. *roll eyes* We won't even talk about the horrible hygiene practice by the majority. If I start rolling my eyes over this one then they'll fall out of my head. Good grief, it's just ridiculous! This virus can live on some surfaces for days, too. Oh well...it's good that y'all are staying home as much as possible. I'm glad to see you're still able to grab a few pix when you can. The painted display looks cheery and happy. A great way to make anyone smile during these dark times. Thanks for joining me for Wild Wednesdays, my dear. Be well! xx
In Europe we stay at home too. The situation is serious.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute sign! Great bird snaps!
ReplyDeleteWe are staying home too. This is the 2nd day and the restriction is getting tighter as some people are taking things easy.
ReplyDeleteHi There, I always enjoy reading your comments on my blog--and also enjoy your posts. I just LOVE the area of the country where you live....
ReplyDeleteHopefully, we'll all come out of this horrible virus problem okay ---and actually will be 'better' people due to it. We all need each other --and I see neighbor helping neighbor all over the place around here... That is GOOD.
Stay healthy and safe.
Hugs,
Betsy
Love the "takeoff on face jugs" bringing art of pots and jars into painting and roadside sculptures even! Hope your critter cam can work again.
ReplyDeleteThe world is in chaos right now.
ReplyDeleteThe nice decorative sign made me smile. Hope your cam problems can be worked out.
ReplyDeleteStay safe and healthy, Linda.
I love that whimsical sign in the last picture. That brightened my day too!
