It seems so long ago since they were here, but actually I saw my last one in October. I always look forward to seeing them, and this past year I saw alot compared to only a few the year before.

This was taken with the old Nikon D3000.

I hope 2016 is a good year for all of my Caedes friends. Thank you for commenting.

A beauty Sandi. It is nice to see some wonderful life and color during these drab days of winter. The weather changes so fast that you never know what to expect. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Have a wonderful year shooting, Sandi. Your eye for composition and detail will serve you well. All you have to do, is be at the right place, at the right time, and do your best. The magic will follow.
