Have you ever wondered what happens in your neighborhood parks when there are no children playing? Well, I found out, that the toys are not wasted. . .

While another Bluebird looks on. As evidenced in that last photo it appears the birds play here often. Who’s playing in your park?



We'll soon be on the road trip to Missouri, don't forget to check out my giveaways!

    Great observations. I think that first shot should be blown up, and framed. Posterized even.

    That is awesome. In my backyard I have some slides and things for Carson and I see the squirrels playing on it. I have tried a couple of times to sneak up and take pictures but between the two year old and two dogs, well you get the picture.

    Have a safe and wonderful trip. If Carson gets out sooner I will try to get in touch with you and let you know.

    Oh! and thanks for the tips on a portrait lens. I usually only shoot portraits with my 50-200mm lens. What do you use for your macro shots?
