LONGING FOR SUMMER DAYS

In a quagmire of trying to organize 95,000 photos and came across this glowing Annisquam scene. Happy summer days to come!

ANNISQUAM SUNSET

Lighthouse Beach Meadow Sunset Annisquam Kim SmithHow Color is Created in Bird Feathers will continue tomorrow. So sorry, but was a very long work day today. It’s so interesting though and I can’t wait to get back to writing. Did you know that the study of feathers is called Plumology? I’ll have time to finish tonight. In the meantime, here are several of last night’s snapshots from a walk at sunset on the Annisquam meadow, heading to Lighthouse Beach. It was a beauty, especially with the bevy of Robins doing their robin-hop-thing while feasting in the grass in the softening sunlight. Spring really and truly has arrived!

GOLDEN TWILIGHT ON THE ANNISQUAM
