Wild Bird Wednesday

More wonderful birds from my recent trip to Puerto Vallarta a couple of weeks ago.
Every bird on today's post was new to me so they added nicely to my life list!

 
Lesser Yellow Legs


Black Neck Stilts and Lesser Yellow Legs


Little Blue Heron



Tropical Kingbird!


Almost didn't get a picture of this Summer Tanager,
as bright as it is it managed to camouflage very well.

Wild Bird Wednesday

Back from a wonderful week in Puerto Vallarta. It was an absolutely fantastic birding week for me, I was able to add more than a dozen birds to my life list!!

Here's a Yellow Crowned Night Heron.



And here is a Juvenile Yellow Crowned Night Heron doing it's best to be invisible.


Another picture of the adult, love that little feather that comes off the top of their head


Here I am birding at one of the spots in Puerto Vallarta, I saw so many amazing birds!!!

Buttons in Action

A few weeks ago I got a special order request for a pair of 2 inch Paisley Buttons.
when I Liz Dodson what they were going to be used for she said
"It's a wrap I made with some crazy novelty yarn I spun with copper sparklies.
 Super warm and very artsy"
Liz sent me an email a few days ago with the subject line of "buttons in action"
Needless to say I am very excited and I LOVE the results!!!
