Another country view of summer in Virginia. Here’s a butterfly the color of the sun, in for a rest and willing to pose for a picture. This fella makes photography easy.

I met this tree (or these three trees) some years ago, but never recognized the odd merger until now. Or is it one tree and three big branches growing from it’s trunk?
At any rate, maybe three really is a crowd.

Why did the turkey cross the road?
I know. If you are reading this, maybe you are already “following” me/my blog.
This morning I was stopped by a turkey in the middle of the road, who decided it was safe at last and led 13 other turkeys behind him/her. They moved too fast for me to get a photo, but they gave “Follow me!” a whole new meaning

It was a rainy day the day before we left for a European river cruise called The Highlights of Germany. I was packed, ready, and gazing out the window when four boy turkeys sitting on the fence began spreading their wings in a show for a bevy of delicate females.
They evidently did not make much of an impression because the girls just walked on by.
Ah well! I could almost hear the guys sigh as they watched opportunity passing.
But then dinner called and they were happily distracted.
And that reminded me of a song called Standing on the Corner (watchin’ all the girls go by). I loved the Dean Martin rendition.
From en.wikipedia.org:
“Standing on the Corner is a popular song written by Frank Loesser and published in 1956. It was introduced by Shorty Long, Alan Gilbert, John Henson, and Roy Lazarus in the Broadway musical, The Most Happy Fella.
