At the end of a very busy day, this welcome sight for weary eyes. A rose in winter—who can resist a wellness retreat like this?

Reminded me of the greedy Grinch, so I made this.

A spectacular sunrise services as backdrop for silhouetted hummingbirds eating breakfast at the nectar feeders in our garden.

Fresh-picked macadamia nuts, harvested on Thanksgiving Day. So fun, so grateful. Next steps: de-husk, dry, crack, roast, and EAT!

So cute, but oh so naughty! Overnight, he stripped my Elizabeth rose bush of all its leaves and flowers. 🥺🌹🐿️

We had a nice reprieve from the rain yesterday, so I grabbed my camera and dashed outside. I'll share some hummingbird photos a bit later... but first, here's a bouquet of freshly-washed flowers for you!

Wings up, tush out! We've got lots of activity at the feeder, in advance of the incoming rainstorm that'll hit tomorrow and drop lots of rain over the next several days... #tushupthursday

Angel Face, she’s got the cutest little angel face… 💕🎶

This may very well be the last full bloom of the season, but she’s so pretty, and the fragrance is divine.

Tiny tangerines, ripening in the autumn sun. (It’s the little things, right?)

Leaf peeping in Upstate New York. It’s not peak season yet, but the autumn sun is peeking through the clouds—a beautifully textured backdrop for #fall foliage. And who doesn’t love the cluckity-clack, rock-a-motion sounds of a vintage train? #Autumn #NewYork #Nature #Train #Joy @cavrr.bsky.social
