Well I have finally officially purchased my domain name.  Basically that means you pay a fee and you own it.  I decided just to do it because my domain (my name) was free so why not try it for a year, right?  I also downloaded some photos from my trip to Costa Rica this past March.  I cannot believe it has been almost 6 months!! Closer to our groups plans on returning back in two years.

This photo attached was taken last year at a local farm.  I came across it recently in my photos and because I have been thinking how soon swallows will be migrating, I decided why not post it?  Not long after them will be one of my favorite birds of all time, the ruby-throats.  Right now I have been enjoying photographing them chasing each other from sunup to sundown!  There seems to be 3 females and one male.  Stay tuned for photos I will post on this site as well as my blog:  ajgphotography67.blogspot.com   Why do I have two blogs?  Don't know........

It has turned out to be a wonderful day! Yes, we are getting "smacked" with around 10"  of snow but at least it is not freezing like this whole winter has been so far.  Plenty of food in the bird feeders, which not only makes the birds happy but makes me just as happy watching them.  There have been 3 male cardinals and 1 female out at the feeder all day, I guess that means it will be an exciting spring for them :)  I came across this photo (Ruby-throated hummingbird) from last year and decided to see how it would look in B & W.  Well it did take on that "mystery mood" feeling that black and white does so beautifully.

  I have also "finally" attached Feedburner to my blog site so your can sign up with your email and receive my blogs when I post them.  I hope you will sign up and follow me as well as share my site to whom ever you think would be interested. Enjoy the snow!!

Sometimes the simplest things are the most beautiful.
