Theme ~ Small Critters

I hope these critters are small enough to be classified as small critters!  Here is the image I used for my header.


And, here are the rest of the small critters I found in my image libraries this morning!

Theme ~ Water

Chosen by Tom.


I used this image below to create my header.  I took it at The Morton Arboretum, and it's the drain area of Lake Marmo.  I liked the curve of the drain contrasted with the straight logs resting on the edge, plus the reflections of the clouds and trees in the water.  There's lots to explore in this photo!


Here are my most recent photos of water.

Thank you, Lew, for a perfect theme this week!  I'm featuring photos taken at The Morton Arboretum, which is alive with springtime color.  Here is the image I used for my header.
