Out of a whole week off of work, we only had one nice day where it didn't rain. I managed to get a couple of shots - nothing great, but I was just glad to be able to get anything. Still haven't found out how to resize the photos without losing so much detail...

Thanks, Roger and Annie! I was hoping to get something more interesting to take photos of, but all I could get were chipmunks for most of the week. One time I was sitting in the front yard by the lake and a HUGE bald eagle landed in a dead tree, 20 feet over my head! Of course, I didn't have my camera handy at the moment, and he flew off pretty quick. Now THAT would have been a great shot!!

oh well, we all have moments like that...but the photos of the so called "common" animals are so cute and I enjoyed them just as much as I would have of your "missed opportunity"!!!!
