A Leaf, A Nest? What Is It?
When I took these photographs I thought these were dried leaves in an arty configuration. On closer inspection at home, I think there may be more to it as they are too precisely shaped.
Here’s a slightly closer view. It was quite breezy that day which may be why I didn’t get a closeup shot
I’m hoping to return to this spot soon, and to remember to look. If I do and they are there I’ll follow up.

Silent Sunday: Leaf Ballet
Leaf Floating on Pond
A snippet of nature that made me pause as I wandered the edge of a pond.
Green Heron Silhouette
Sometimes the light just isn’t with you.
But you like the subject. A Green Heron on a gnarly branch worked for me.
I took the color out of the first two, but left the duckweed green in this last one.
Grass Triangles With Dragonfly
Triangles of grass and their reflections caught my eye.
The dragonfly was a bonus.
Gardenia Blossom, After A Rain
Open Magnolia Blossom, After a Rain
Freshly dampened by the rain, this Magnolia Blossom was reaching for the sky.
And from a little different angle.
Statue and Friends
The grounds around Magnolia Plantation and Gardens are dotted with decorative statues. Look close and you will see an alligator tail and a turtle to the right of this lady, sharing the view of the pond.
