Residing in central Florida, I never had any success after planting azaleas. However, my wife's mom, residing close by, had beautiful azaleas, which bloomed every spring. She had them in half sun, half shade area next to a gentil spray sprinkler head.

Thank you for your Azaleas photo.

The best of the New Year to you also.

I had Rhododendron growing when I lived in NY. They can handle the winters' cold. Thanks, Stillngam, for your photo & The New Year's Best to you also.

"Who you gonna call?"
This bald eagles funny face reminds me of Bill Murray's in the "Ghostbusters" movie.

Hello Patsy, Happy New Year to you also.

Yes. The Owl... symbol of wisdom! We do have hope! Thanks, Jonathan.

Wishing you the same...
Thank you, Melanie.

Thank you, Heather.

Beautiful creatures! Nice closup!That Zebra posed for you so you could get its photo. After many attempts, I was lucky to get this short video, which I edited to slow motion with my android phone.

Hot soup & hot tea! Cranberry juice & tangerines!

Very appropriate name for an elephant. Nosey looks happy with her birthday pumpkin treats. Thanks, Patsy.

This lovely, maybe, likes her photo taken. Thanks, Sebastian. Very, very nice.

Wow, great Halloween costumes! My wife, Genevieve, and I had a nice Halloween also. Thanks. 🙂

Happy Halloween to you, too, and your lovely trick or treat companion!

A more than appropriate Halloween figure. It would fit right into a scary front lawn display. One of its hands seems like it has six fingers, not to mention this creatures hairdo. Happy Halloween!

No, on the bluebells! On Halloween, we love spiders!

I'm just joking. Very nice photo. Thanks. We love both. 🙂🙂

Like waiting in the D.M.V. line! One must dig very deep into one's self. Waiting is the catalyst we use to find our wholeness.

Looking at this picture, you can smell the fresh morning air and feel alive with an abundance of nature's promises.
