Williamsburg

While most of my images have been taken in Carroll County, I have taken my Nikon to other states. Here are some images from trips to Williamsburg, Va. I have shot all the seasons there expect winter. I like history and photography, so it is perfect for me. I have been known to stand in place for a while to get a shot without visitors. This collection is a drop in the bucket to the amount of images I have of Williamsburg. I will share images from other places I have visited over the next couple of months.

Morning Walk

One morning this week after completing some chores, I took my Nikon for a walk around the yard. There were some bees and butterflies busy visiting the flowers. Not as many as past summers. I watched the birds while on the stroll and watched a pair feed their offspring in one of the birdhouses Shirley has hung in the yard. A chipmunk kept running out to gather a meal from under the bird feeder. Speaking of birds, they beat me to the berries this year.

Last Week

The past week saw the temperature go up and down and speaking of down, boy did the rain fall at times. Especially Saturday evening as a front went through. The weather kept me from covering sports, so I was itchy to take pictures. So out into the front yard I went and shot the the Bradford Pears and flowers. I saw the moon rising while shooting the blooms on the Bradford Pears and aimed my camera that way. The granddaughters have wanted snowballs, so Sunday after dinner when headed to their favorite snowball stands. While they got their tasty treats, I shot the cross on a church with the sun going down. A visitor from last year returned this week. A chipmunk makes his way into the bird feeder, but try as he may, the squirrel can't get to the food. Most of the birds let the chipmunk alone. Not a bad week with my Nikon.
