Wildflowers and more

These flowers are my favorite so far this week... Low growing wildflowers in the woods. So pretty!

A tiny creek running in our woods after a day or two of rain...

A close up of a dandelion

Trees in the hedgerow behind the field. They're trying to show a little green!

More violets... Against a backdrop of a large clay pot.

Our tulips opened up this week! This one is pictured against a backdrop of snow flowers, although their little white snow flowers haven't appeared yet.

A shaggy bark hickory tree. I love it's tiered, peeling bark...

This robin turned it's little beak toward me just long enough to snap one clear picture.

Sometimes I wonder if squirrels fall asleep upside down like this... They rest so still on the side of a tree.

A little woodpecker was hopping around the tree with our neighbor's land in the backdrop.

This is the last picture I was able to take of the little fox pups. They have since left their den... I wonder if they are now out living in the surrounding hedgerows and creeks?

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are having a great week! God bless, Danielle

Wildlife Pictures

A blue jay in the woods...

This Spring we've had a mother fox with 9 pups (at least that's what I counted once) near our woods behind the barn. Since they are wild animals, I took these close up pictures with the zoom on my Canon camera... I was standing a good distance away from the den. The picture above is from a couple weeks ago. Oh, the babies are so cute!

The mama sitting in the field, watching all that's going on around her...

From earlier this week... Don't the nursing pups look like furry little bunnies?

One of the fox pups sitting on the top of their den... They had been scurrying around, jumping and pouncing on one another. I think this one was getting a little sleepy.

A little pup sitting quietly, at least for a moment or two... 

I've been singing this song along with my guitar all month - What A Friend We Have In Jesus. I love that one. It's message reminds us to take all our troubles to the Lord in prayer. It's message never grows old for me. God wants us to keep praying to Him, and seek His strength and help every moment of the day. Sometimes I pray, Lord please help me to pray more! I know He hears me and will help me.

Philippians 4:6-7,13 Be anxious for nothing, but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus...I can do all things through Christ which strenghteneth me.

I hope you have been having a great week! Thanks for stopping by today. God bless, Danielle
