Hello friends!
Happy #aliveandthriving Thursday afternoon / evening to you!
β¨ππ»ββοΈβ¨
So friends, this evening I have a few photos from my #aliveandthriving Thursday (today) that I would like to share with you.
So, to start the day I found these "Texas Dandelions" growing around the mailbox. They were so vibrant I had to take a few photos!
This is a double,
And two single flowers in various stages of growth,
And this one a tiny bit older,
These guys are so vibrant!
I also found these "Moss Rose" growing as well!
A little later on while tending to my plants I noticed that one of the Peppers has an inhabitant,
Well, I guess I need more "Anoles"!
A little later I took out "Brutus" and headed to the Park - my miles for the year are low, must be due to buying another vehicle!
Over there I caught the daily "Gull in the Pole" - and you can see to Pita and Padre Island!
There was a very strange Cloud formation over the Water Treatment Facility - and there is more on those coming in a future post.
These guys flew overhead,
For now, the birds were gathering around the Breeding Pond,
Here I got on a table so I could get most of the Pond in. It's almost full, for a change!
At this point everything changed! The afternoon Gull feeding signal must have been sounded somewhere! They all came flying out of the Water Treatment Facility!
And while looking up I saw that this Jet was making Contrails,
At that point I decided to leave and head elsewhere and get in some miles! On the way I saw this group of Wildflowers growing, there is a little bit of everything of in there!
And I passed by these guys changing a Light Pole,
I did not mention that Tuesday evening we had a Tornado "Here". I have been avoiding certain photos as I feel it not right to post people's misfortune. Especially not what I have seen.. Hundai's under trees, trees on houses, etc.. I am sure you get what I mean and these guys are actually replacing a snapped Power Pole - that bad! At my place except for small branches (twigs) no damage at all - but I did hear it - "LOUD"!
Well to finish the day and this post I also want to share with you a photo of my first "Melo Yelo Pepper" - "Ever"! Actually it's not ripe (and not Yelo either). It fell off when I was looking at them this afternoon.
And that was my #aliveandthriving Thursday!
I want to thank you again for your visit and I am Wishing you a Very Blessed, Happy, and Safe Friday!
