Zachary Turns One

I did a fun little shoot of Zachary for his first birthday.  Even though it was a very cold January morning, he didn't seem to mind. He was a little trouper!

Fields of fresh hay before summer harvest is a perfect backdrop for Eric and Julia's family pictures.

Little Zachary Only Three Weeks Old

Here's little three week old Zachary.  This tired little guy probably didn't like all the rearranging when he was trying to sleep, but he sure was a trouper.

He's already a Duck Fan!

Mr. Bear wishes he'd wake up to play.

It's so hard to keep those little eyes open!

Around My Yard - in January (& More)

I stepped outside of my yard for a few other special shots to share with you.  First and foremost, my favorite shot of the month, my little grandson Zachary, who was born January 20th.

I stopped by the Meadowlark Prairie Wetlands, and spotted a beautiful Great Blue Heron sitting on the bank just waiting for me to take his picture.

Over at the local park where a bunch of Canadian Geese hanging around, as well as some unusual Pilgrim Geese that sparked my attention.

Back at home I had a squirrel who wanted in my bird food

and some cute little birds to watch.
