I hook rugs, I knit and I have a life - not always in that order. Hooking rugs in the traditional way is a passion. Knitting is a way of keeping those idle hands busy. In my life, I am a mother, partner, sister,aunt, friend and a happy grammy. I work with volunteers and seniors when I'm not doing those other things. I enjoy being creative - and often reinvent the wheel. Above all, I value things that are not only beautiful but useful.

Saturday scene
Looking back a bit...
This cormorant was found resting by the ferry dock at one of the Gulf islands last fall. They're quite common here on the coast. Cormorants can often be seen standing with their wings outstretched - drying them in the sun.
What a nice surprise. We are birdwatchers, so love any posts with birds in them! He does, in fact, appear to be resting. After clicking on him, it seems that his eyes are closed. I've never seen a real one. I'm talking about you on my post today.

ReplyDeleteI wish it was warm enough to spread my wings and sunbathe.
ReplyDeleteYou have such interesting wildlife. Still no news on the critter scratching at your home?
What a great photograph - Loving all the colours.
ReplyDeleteNICE shot! Cormorants are rarer here in Ontario and quite shy...at least in my experience.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of the cormorant, he is a beauty. We need to get over to the coast more often, I really miss the ocean.
ReplyDeleteKewl capture of this cormorant ;-)
