Hope you have fun looking at my creations and other things I love in life.... calligraphy is my passion, but so is my family... consisting of "the love of my life", my hubby, and my three miniature long haired dachshunds. You'll see lots of them here. Loved this quote: There’s something sacred about reading a blog post on someone else’s site. It’s like visiting a friend’s house for a quick meal ’round the breakfast table. It’s personal—you’re in their space, and the environment is uniquely suited for idea exchange and uninterrupted conversation. In many ways, we should be treating our blogs like our breakfast tables. Be welcoming & gracious when you host, and kind & respectful when visiting.” – Trent Walton

Hummingbird Moths....


Today…. out Kev’s window.. while he was playing accordion, he spotted something
fluttering in his peripheral vision and he thought they were hummingbirds…a few baby ones..

He got out his camera and went outside but they all disappeared.. He snapped a couple
inside through the window and this is what he came up with….. Snowberry Hummingbird Moths.



We don't have any of the plants which they are drawn too, but they must like the Agerita's which are in bloom right now 'cause that is the bush that is right outside of his window.
SOMEONE (probably Taz... across the street... whose whole back yard is a fruited plain.. which include succulent tomatoes) in the neighborhood  certainly is, though…

Go figure.. something so UGLY that goes SPLAT can be so pretty when it grows up!

Looks like a bumblebee up close, kinda!


Do they really have those curly tendrils? WOW!  Love it!
