Wonderful Visit

I had such a wonderful visit with Sandy Sandy last weekend that

I had to stretch it out over 3 posts (plus I took hundreds of photos).

The chipmunk living in the bear shaped chiminea was one of my favorite photos!

 Isn't he adorable?

The photo below was the foundation to an old glass factory.

Sandy's husband, Jerry, makes all these wonderful animals out of salvaged materials. The horseshoe horse and dragon with glass door knob eyes were two of my favorites! He even gave me one of his sculptures!

Sandy and Rita, what a great pair!

Hummer Land



I've been a long time follower of Sandy Sandy's blog and recently I saw that that she was letting hummingbird enthusiasts come out and photograph her little birds. Well, you can believe I jumped at the chance! Sandy and her husband Jerry were wonderful hosts sharing their home with me for the weekend. There were so many animals- hummingbirds, deer, turkeys, wild birds, horses, and even a darling chipmunk. I truly believe I have made a friend for life and feel like I have met a very kindred spirit. Please check out Sandy's website as well when you get the chance, she is an amazing artist!

So here are a few of my favorite hummingbird photos from 'Hummer Land'. Please click on each photo for a larger view, some of the details are amazing!
