Fox
The adult Fox scratching in the morning sun.
The baby Fox came up onto the deck early this morning and we enjoyed watching it run about. Later in the afternoon, the baby Fox came by the Patio Garden where I was working and said hello.

A great mystery.
The large and very mysterious leaf...
we wondered where it could have come from;
but instead of looking around for its parent tree,
We (by silent agreement) decided to leave it a mystery...
to wonder about and occasionally remark on.

Downy Woodpecker
I like this photo because the subject is lit by the bright morning sun.
Usually, these birds like to stay in the shadows of the limbs.
