Polar Bear

 

I was happy to see a Polar Bear out and about on this summers day. In the past I have photographed the bear in the winter. This bear looked agitated, pacing back and forth with it's tongue hanging out......was she/he too hot? Don't know but thank you bear for some great pictures.

Detroit Zoo

 

I visited the Detroit Zoo today and a beautiful day it was. I took more photos of the flowers then animals. Lovely day!

My window screen makes an interesting texture on this photo of my backyard.

Loosestrife

 

Old Shed

 

One of my favorite things to photograph at Lake Erie.....I liked it better when it was blue.

Killdeer

 

Of all the years that I have been taking pictures of birds, I have never gotten one of a Killdeer. That's because it moves around so much and won't pose for me...lol.  Found this guy at Lake Erie metropark.

My June Garden

 

The garden is at it's best in June and although I don't do a lot in my yard everything is looking beautiful.This Hydrangea is full of blooms...small but loaded. Will trim it way back after it is done blooming to see if next year I have bigger blossoms. Behind the Hydrangea is a climbing rose that is done for the year...it only blooms once a year but the blossoms are so fragrant.

Lemon yellow Daylily

Shasta Daisies 

Oh those Bubblegums!!!!

Proven Winners Supertunia Vista Bubblegum...what a show. Three plants in this copper vat is the highlight of my garden all summer.

A Lowe's petunia....on the tag it said "Petunia" . It is a pretty color.
