synapped  > Other > The Latest Thing Pre-2012
My "Latest Thing" galleries are a nearly daily upload of whatever catches my eye at the moment, so it's a hodgepodge of images. They are then organized -- along with occasionally some images that don't make it into The Latest Thing -- into categories you can find by clicking in the upper left on "synapped."

synapped > Fair Piglets

I finally got pix of the piglets at the fair this year!  I think there are about 12 of them buried in there.  They played like puppies and were so cute!

Okay, you might think I'm crazy, but ever since I saw some piglets a friend posted one year I just had to get some.  That year I went the day after they'd taken the babies home 'cuz it was too hot.  The next year or two they didn't have pigs 'cuz of fear of swine flu.  FINALLY this year they're back!

Some more piglet shots in the Critter Babies gallery

synapped > Listen Closely

I finally got hit by the Bandit!  This shot got blasted out of the pool by however they do it -- thumbs down or whatever.  Can't believe people do such things!  So my husband and I wrote 3 comments with stars & thumbs up, and it's back!  Weird system here...
synapped > Looking for Home

I saw this baby pied-billed grebe on the roadway at the wildlife refuge.  I hope he found his mother before a hawk found him...

Also in the Water Birds gallery
synapped > Not Forgotten

Also in the Misc. Flowers gallery
synapped > Color-falls

The fair city of Vancouver, USA always has the richest hanging baskets.  I can never figure out how to get a shot of them but decided to try this year...

Also in the Misc. Flowers gallery
synapped > Mother and Baby Ospreys

I put a few more shots of the family here

I went to visit the osprey nests the other day.  The babies are as big as the parents now but are not flying for a few weeks yet.  You can see their light markings on the sides to differentiate them from the mother.  I've always missed their first flight.  There are 3 nests along this road by the river, plus 2 other nests I know of farther away, so you'd think surely I'd get to see one of them take off someday!
synapped > Leaves of Coral

I love these trees with the amazing pink leaves.  I took dozens of shots of the leaves.  
I used the "Flood" Photoshop Plugin to create the water illusion

Also in the Other Bites o' Nature gallery

synapped > Half-Pint

Okay, I'm a total sucker for our neighborhood baby barred owls!  This is the first year I've heard one of them (and got a shot) in my own backyard.  It's so frustrating that they're always in such dark surroundings, so it's hard to get a sharp shot.  At least I got the eyes!  To see how much s/he's grown up in the last month, compare it to this shot.  I saw this one fly between several trees, but s/he was still calling for Mom or Dad to bring dinner NOW!

Morning update:  I heard this poor baby calling long into the night.  I'm thinking maybe it's come that time when Mommy is making him get hungry enough to hunt his own dinner.  I felt so sorry for him I had to shut my window!
synapped > Monumental Spring

We were in DC last year visiting our kids & grandbaby.  I had a few more blossoms shots I never did post.  The rest of the gallery is here.
synapped > Fluttering Breezes

I caught this lovely flutterby on a different rose with a horrible background, so I combined the two shots in Photoshop to make it prettier =)

Also in the Butterflies gallery
