  1. Beautiful photos, Veronica. The zinnia was very pretty. I have sown zinnia for the first time this year, but they have not bloomed yet.

    Have a great Sunday!

  15. Gallimaufry is a new word for me. I understood it from context, but had to look it up to get the true meaning. - Margy

  16. I love that word! I wonder if I'm saying it right though! Love the cattle egrets. We have them here but it can be a challenge to get good pics!

  17. Great photos as always, and those birds are just beautiful! I love the tribute to fatherhood on father's day, but I keep going back to the cafe painting and that wonderful chocolate dessert! Yummy!

  30. Hi veronica. Naturally I homed in on the bird photos. It seems that wherever I go in the world I see Cattle Egrets and they always seem to be an obliging species for the camera. You took time great pics. I like that plate of sweet delights too.

  40. Your photos are always SO gorgeous, and that cattle egret is absolutely stunning!

  41. I especially liked those delights at your favorite cafe, Veronica Lee, and what's NOT to like from the choices shown. Cattle egret were a familiar sight when we lived on the VA eastern shore. They would perch on the backs of wild horses and the horses never seemed to mind their presence.

  42. Wonderful variety of photos. I enjoyed them all and like the quote "Some beautiful paths on our journey can only be discovered when you dare to face the unknown." Very inspiring . We have lots of those egrets in South Florida.
