The ground was covered in wet leaves on a recent walk in South Glenmore Park. However, this was the leaf that caught my eye : )
This actually made it to Front Page (interestingness#5) on 28th October 2009 - thanks so much, EVERYONE! I never bother with this, but after a few people left comments here to let me know, I just had to check the screen shots they very kindly left for me! Much appreciated.

Wasn't going to upload this, but then thought that perhaps I would, so that it is included in my Explore Set. In three years, I haven't bothered to check Front Page, so would not even have known that my photo was there if several people hadn't told me. Thank you to those who very kindly did a screen save for me - much appreciated. Hoping I can find how to disable comments once my photo is uploaded, 'cos I can't see anywhere yet where I can turn it off : ) NO COMMENTS, please - just for my records! I've already thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated all your kind comments under the actual photo : )

A small, brilliantly green flower that was in a small, mixed bunch of flowers that I bought from my usual place a few days ago.

Just for my own records. Decided I would add these to my Flickr photostream after all - kind of feels like I'm bragging, though, which is why I originally didn't post them. I seem to have been black-listed by Explore, LOL, after getting three of my images - the ONLY three that I am aware of - on Front Page, these two on consecutive days. So, these three FPs will most likely be the only three I ever get in, anyway : ) I never think of checking Front Page (never have done in over three years, as I must admit I don't really consider it a big deal), so I would never have known if others hadn't told me and two people hadn't kindly saved screen shots for me. However, I DO thank all of you for taking the time to look at any of my images at any time. THAT is a big deal and is so very much appreciated!

Isn't this the cutest little thing? I love having Red-breasted Nuthatches fly down to my hand - they are so small and light and dainty. Saw this little guy in Fish Creek Park on 31st December last year.
