Default Saturday morning walk-about

Gonna be a beautiful spring day in the Ozarks so I decided I'd do a walk about around the Faulkner homestead just after sun up this morning with my camera. Spotted a painted bunting early, then noticed the eastern bluebirds were in and out of the birdhouse in regular intervals. The bluebirds seemed to like the storm proof birdhouse I made out of left over Trex materials from my deck.

The bluebirds didn't seem to mind me be around too much until my walk-about tag-along showed up. Once Daisy showed up I noticed there was a pause in the feeding ritual until we moved on.

Pretty birds. Nice house you made for them. My dad made hundreds, if not thousands of them. His were mostly just pine though. And it's always a pleasure to see Daisy!
Glad you had a good morning. Hope the rest of the day is as fine.

When you retire from law enforcement you can become a photographer or a writer!

You just have to take advantage of the photo opportunities as they come along. Plus, have a camera with you.
