Mt Taranaki, ala Hubby

Hubby took these photos of the mountain over the last couple of days. He has a pretty good eye, I think!

swan plant bloom

It's a shame that these beautiful buds hang down so that I have to hold them up or bend down to get a shot of them. But, nevertheless, they are lovely to see when the sun is going down.

random countryside scenes





New Zealand is usually very neat and tidy, 

but this picnic area seems to be forgotten.

Dirt bathing

A while back, it was quite evident that a rabbit had first eaten and then dug up a small bush I had planted. Since there were more holes but no more casualties, I figured all was well.  A few days later--and for many days after--there were no more deep holes, but many small indentions in the ground. I really didn't think about them until Hubby motioned for me to look out the window today, I had my answer to the small holes. Birdie dirt baths!

adorable couple

These kids were walking ahead of us at Naumai Park. I don't usually take photos of people, but I couldn't resist this cute duo holding hands.

Koru

Every year, I look forward to seeing ferns before they unfold. The Maori call it 'koru' and it symbolizes new life.

I have been editing my photos in Photoscape for years. Its free and does everything I want to edit my photos--except one, and that's to highlight one color in a b&w shot. Thanks to Rhonda over at Albom Adventures, I can now do that in Picmonkey.

wintery skies

It looks as if Mt Taranaki is dressed in her finest, flowing scarf.
