We had a small group of American Goldfinches stop by yesterday. I will be able to do a little bird watching here. I watched two Red-tailed hawks chase off a Bald Eagle down by the river. It was one of those moments when I wish I had my camera. Then again, it happened so fast, I'm not sure I would have been able to get a good shot of the fight.
On a different day, there were three Bald Eagles doing large slow circles over the campground, up the river, and over the town. They did this several times while I was outside with the cats. You can bet I kept my eye on them when they were over the campground.
Doesn't this dried out Yucca pod have some interesting texture? I was tempted to pick a few, but what would I do with them? I decided a photo was a better idea. Best to leave them alone and let Mother Nature do her thing. Besides, the cats would have chewed them to pieces.

I took a break from making Happy Campers since the interest in them has slowed down. Time to get these quilts in my shop.

This time, I decided to pre-wash all my finished lap quilts. All the photos are after being washed.

Happy Quilting!
Welcome to Wyoming! I hope you enjoy your summer. I live in Cody, which is north of you, towards Yellowstone. I love reading your blog, especially when I see familiar places!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sophie! We are enjoying our stay so far. We have been in your area. We love visiting Yellowstone. Gorgeous country!
DeleteSuch beautiful nature where you live, Sandy! Your quilts are gorgeous, as always :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Melissa! This area has been a lot of fun to explore.
DeleteGreat place to display your quilts. I think washing is a great test for baby quilts because they do get washed a lot.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilts you made, Sandy! And your bird photos are gorgeous! Hope you got to do some more sewing on your day(s) off.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! Between planting the garden, homeschooling, and college, I haven't had time to do any quilting!! I do have some projects pulled out for me to work on this summer. I hope to start them up next week after I get through this hump in this class. I have a paper due this weekend I haven't started writing yet. I just cannot stand reading this guy. I'll be glad when its over! hehe Enjoy!
