Bells Bend Park...I got lost!
What a beautiful weekend we have had here in Tennessee!
Yesterday morn, I was awakened by a cute little cardinal siting outside my window whistling, "Wake up Scott, come and take my picture".
As much as I wanted to sleep, I got up and went outside. I did sleep in though, I did not get up until 5:00!
At that point, I knew I needed to go somewhere, I just did not know where! Then I remembered all the hoopla on TV this week about Bells Bend and the Maytown community! So off I went, with camera and protein coffee in hand.
When I found the park, the sun had not yet risen. Fog covered the area, and I thought the morning would be a total waste! Little did I know!
The sun finally rose and I could see the dew on the spiderwebs. What a magical experience! Majestic is the only word I could use to describe what was surrounding me!
To be surrounded by a symphony of praise from the areas inhabitants was refreshing! No one was worried about weight loss or regain. No one was complaining about their fellow co-workers. No one was complaining period. Well, maybe this one guy who found me intruding on his domain.
I guess the best thing that came out of yesterday was the refreshing spirit that only nature can bring.
Oh yeah, I did get lost and my trusty pedometer said I walked 4.5 miles over the hills and through the woods to grandmothers house I go! I definitly could not do that a year and a half ago!

OMG, Scott, the pictures are GORGEOUS!
You should get lost more often!
I love the bird shots--all I have in my yard are finches and barn swallows with the occasional cardinal, mockingbird and bluebird. So it's nice to see such a glorious variety of birds. I love how some of the finch-y looking birds in your pictures had their yappers wide open!
Keep up the great photography and thanks for sharing!
HUGS!!!!
