Once again I invite you to join me on a Walk Down Memory Lane.
This series takes you through the collection of Jake's slide scans.
Some of these pictures may go back to the '60s and some are as new as 2005.
As usual,these are in random order,much like many older photo albums are.
Jake enjoys anything that flies.
He has attended many airshows and here are a few pictures.
The US Air force Thunderbirds.
These guys put on a fantastic show.
O.K. this air show happened on our yard.
The Indigo Bunting is somewhat in the shadows.
I'll show the airplane pictures to Art- he'll love them.
ReplyDeleteJake got to feed Pine Siskins in his hand????
Terrific pictures, Ruth!! I like the Pine Siskins eating out of Jake's hand!
ReplyDeleteI love all the birds! We have pine siskins here, too, but they are more dull green and yellow. Maybe ours here aren't pine siskins? They gobble up the thistles seedfrom the feeder in 4 or 5 days.
ReplyDeleteWow, These pictures are ALL so cool Ruth. Of course I like everything you post. How did you get those Siskins to eat out of Jakes hand? My siskins have all gone North for the summer.
ReplyDeleteB.
I LOVE the dragonfly.. it's so pretty. It looks like the one I have tattooed on my wrist. Special meaning to that, of course... that is why I just gasped at that photo.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so beautiful!
Hugs♥
Ruth: That is a neat capture of the planes and the butterflies. They both have neat wings.
ReplyDeleteNice Series! Love the one of the Siskins in Jake's hand.
ReplyDeleteTha airshow photos are so cool!! Very nice! The one of the siskins fighting over the seeds is too precious :)
ReplyDeleteRuth,
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice variety of things that fly. I love your selection. How I would like to see an admiral butterfly and those siskins actually fighting while trying to eat out of Jake's hands are pretty neat...what a great action shot...I think capturing birds in flight is difficult to get and yours are so nicely in focus!! Something I haven't achieved yet!!
The picture of the red, white and blue fighter is a P-51 and the jet is a F-15 both neat planes. I've never seen that P-51 before and we were at a P-51 gathering in Columbus, Ohio last fall that had 86 P-51s. Quite a sight. Great walk. Thanks
Just wonderful pictures (again!)
ReplyDeleteAre all of the bird shots from your yard? I know you said the hawks were from a neighbors yard, but you do have a huge collection of birds! They are so nice to see. Thanks for sharing them all. You put it together so nicely!
These are beautiful! Nature photography at its best, and the airplanes are pretty nice, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a variety! Those plane shots are great. I love watching good air teams and have some shots of the Canadian Snowbirds from when they preformed here. That spider web is amazing! The White admirals...beautiful! How neat to have birds eating out of his hand. I've never gotten any to do that yet. I like your memory lane.
ReplyDeleteGosh, such variety, I love them all. The Thunderbirds, Monarch, White Admirals. Hard to pick a favorite.

WoW...some very beautifully captured shots!
ReplyDeleteThose Pine Siskins fighting in Jake's hand - now that is just so neat!! You have an amazing variety here as always, Ruth!
ReplyDeleteThe spider web is so intricate and beautiful. Pine Siskins are scrappy birds and we have had plenty here, but none that fed out of our hand.
ReplyDeleteMy favs were the birds and bugs.You did post a variety of wings! Thank you for sharing Ruth!
ReplyDeleteMy treatment begins on Tues. next..prayers please.hugs
Great series ~ I love the pine siskins in Jake's hand! Amazing! Thank you for the treat as always.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful collection!
ReplyDeleteIt always amazes me to see handfeeding! Can't imagine the experience! Fighter jets look awesome!
ReplyDeleteI can't begin to tell you how much I'm enjoying this walk down memory lane with you. All the pictures are wonderful.
