I played Nature Photographer the other day... set up the camera on a tripod got a chair and waited and waited and waited ... SUCCESS
San Xavier Mission ... the mission is being rehabed ... the inside is finished and they are now working on the outside. Very beautiful.
I especially love the courtyard.
It was a sucessful photography day at the Desert Museum with only two exceptions. The big horn sheep were all taking it easy in the shade. Of course, after we had left their site they apparently decided to get up and pose for the cameras. The other disappointment was that the cougers were nowhere to be seen in their incloser. 
Some shots of the wild life at the Desert Museum ... too tired to write more!
We are at Saguaro National Park in Tucson Arizona. The Saguaro Cactus were in bloom. We had a beautiful day ...
I was lucky enough to be able to get a close up of a saguaro flower. Then while we were enjoying our picnic we had a small guest come to the table ... again, I was lucky as I managed to get several shots of the little fellow.
Our lilac's are blooming and the perfume is heavenly. The cold snap we had a few days ago didn't hurt them, thank goodness. Today is overcast and we are having rain showers off and on. Basically a pretty yucky day.
One of the Peony's is lush and full of buds....
ummm, don't know if you can tell or not.
And I have no clue what kind of bush this is ... my husband stuck a limb from a neighbor's bush in the ground and this is what we now have blooming in the yard. My husband does fairly well with this type of gardening. He says it's all in the attitude ... he looks at the plant and tells it "If you live I'll water and feed you ... if you die you go on the compost pile" They tend to live which is why we do not have a "curb appeal" type lawn. ::sigh::
