  43. I prefer all at once once a week or separate posts every day. And that's because I came early in the week when your post with just one picture popped up on my Feedly favorites list. Then when you add to ithe same post it doesn't appear again. I just came back by chance responding to your sweet comment on my Grebes post....if I hadn't done that I would have missed everything but your first picture! And that would have been shame because I loved everything!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Nice pictures, specially the eagle photo... very intriguing.
