Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to all our friends and family back home in Canada. Here are a few photos of the lights at Bellingrath Gardens about 45 minutes north east of us. They had a wonderful display.
Dauphine Island Alabama – December 2014

Neighbourhood Birds – December 2014
Most of these shots of birds were taken in my backyard in Gautier Mississippi. A few others were taken on a walk through the neighbourhood. The last three images, of the osprey were taken just a few miles away on the Pascagoula River.
