Thanks, Mitra. I see you were in DC at cherry blossom time. This image was taken right around the time you would have been there. I was at a conference for a week, and when I returned, the cherry blossoms were past their peak. Maybe I'll run into to your next year along the Tidal Basin.
All the best,
Maryanne

Hi Maryanne,
Guess what? I even came to Maryland and I went to visit The United States Naval Academy in Annapolis! :) I love Maryland, D.C. and VA and whenever I leave D.C. I miss it a lot! I sure hope one of these days when I am there I get to see you. That would be awesome.
With the warmest regards,
Mitra

Gkad you enjoyed your visit, Mitra. I work quite close to this area of DC -- and have for years. So my co-workers and I always complain about the traffic at cherry blossom time -- but the blossoms are really beautiful and we spend some time strolling under those trees every year.
I'll be looking for you next year!
Maryanne

Thanks so much, Dave. I couldn't get as close to this guy as I did to the other one, so the resolution is not as good. But I like this shot better because of the variation in colors and the plumage.
Thanks for commenting.

Sounds good Maryanne. I will be the one behind the camera! :) Sometimes I just like to look and soak in the beauty and the wisdom of the nature.

Thanks for your kind words, Michele. He's a pretty cool looking bird, and I'm so glad you like the photo. I'm going to post some architectural stuff tomorrow that you might be interested in (remember the log cabin -- this stuff has a similar interesting history). I'll be interested to know what you think.
Thanks again for commenting.
All the best,
Maryanne

Thanks, John. I was a cloudy day, in fact it was raining on and off all week, and this was the only day it let up for a little while. I really appreciate your kind words.
Best,

Thanks so much Nicole. I must have received you message telepathically, because I just wrote you a note on all the things going on at the moment. It's very sweet of you to ask -- I'm having so many things converge at the same time, but they seem to be good things, so even when I knew I'd be tremendously busy with my move, I said yes to a special assignement -- and it's turned out rather well so far.
Thanks so much for your concern, dear friend.
All the best,
Maryanne

So sweet of you to comment, dear Srna. I will be posting when I can, things should calm down a bit in a week or so. Right now, it's a bit crazy (moving this week).
Love,
Maryanne
