Lichen

I chose this pic for the bird and the lichen on the tree branch. I didn't know it was there until I got the pic on the computer. I like lichen. :0)

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Valentine's Day! I wanted to find a pic that had to do with love, but it just didn't happen. I took some of the kitties playing, but I didn't have enough light. It was misty and cloudy most of the day.

My sweet Valentine gave me some warm fleece pj's, because you never know when you might need to outside for a pic in your pj's. He gave me an 8GB memory card, because he knows I love the smell of a fresh memory card. I got a heart shaped box of yummy chocolates. Chocolates come in handy, when you would rather take pics than cook. He took me out for a nice meal, too. He's definitely a keeper! :0)

Thank you so much for your comments and faves on my pics this week!!! I'm so glad to be a part of this community! :0)
