A Foggy Morning


I don my slicker and garden shoes and head out of doors.....the slight mist does not put me off.  With camera in hand I want to capture the moody morning....
As I walk into the Arbor garden I am careful to be quiet and to stay as far away from Mrs. Cardinal as I can.  She's made her nest in the Silver Lace Vine....

There she is....
Then I notice a flash of red and zoom in on Mr. Cardinal outside the Arbor, no doubt keeping an eye on me....
I stop to admire the Bleeding Heart...so delicate....
Then I turn my camera to capture the Dogwood in the distance....
I continue my walk....
I see a hummingbird just above the Dogwood but cannot snap the photo quick enough, so I settle for my peacock....
I turn to capture the view behind me....
Then towards the allée....
I am not surprised to find deer in our woods....
I wander through the yard....I love how the white flowers are accented in the mist....
And how mysterious it looks off in the distance....

It's beginning to do more than mist.  I notice Gabriel.  He is patiently awaiting my return....

Now I must content myself with the view from my desk....

UPDATE:  Mr. & Mrs. Cardinal announce the arrival of two new babies....
