We took a little nature walk around our yard and street today. We met several flowers, bugs and even made friends with a little mouse. Enjoy!

I assure everyone that our little friend wasn’t harmed and was carefully placed in a good hiding place once we were done visiting. I will say though, our mouse friend was practically impossible to snap a picture of…he was rather quick and seemed to only stay still and be petted when the camera wasn’t pointed at him 
All these pictures were taken with my new Nikon D60 that my parents gave me while they were visiting with us this last week/weekend. We had a great time outside today.
Wonderful pictures! And that’s a great camera! I regret getting a Canon instead of a Nikon…
Idzie~ Thanks! I have a really old fully manual Canon and I love it, but it needs to be sent to the shop. It takes the best pictures with hand-rolled black & white film.
Those are great photos. I’m all about the bokeh. I have a Canon, but I don’t regret it.
It’s a great camera. Nikon makes great cameras too.
Thanks for the comment on my blog. Great to “meet” you. Love the dreadies!

Tara~ I must admit that I had to look up the word “bokeh”! I really like to shoot in macro and with large aperture lenses, which apparently “bokeh” is important for — that whole shallow depth of field thing! I swear, if I actually knew correct photographic terminology, I might sound half-way intelligent! However, I CAN take pictures!
