Early morning, catch the bus to work or school. You know exactly how she feels.
Except it’s the weekend! Woo! No going to school or work!

Bird on Ground
What kind of bird is this? Around a dozen congregate around our bird feeders, dive to the ground and bath in the bowl of water below, and even fight over how gets to have a bath or a feed sometimes!

Bird Feeding
Us on the tower
Painted with the light of a torch on a round tower in a local church yard late at night. If you look carefully you can even see stars in the sky! This page has some information about that tower:
The round tower in Waterloo (approx. 1 mile from Blarney) … … was built in the 1800’s by Fr. Matt Horgan, the then parish priest of Blarney.
My Garden
Looking out of a window onto a garden, a colourful and lively scene unfolds before your eyes. In the foreground, two bird feeders are hanging from the washing line, swaying gently in the breeze.
Beyond the feeders, a lush expanse of green grass stretches out towards the trees and garden walls.
The photo is oversaturated, with bright and vivid colours that evoke a sense of joy and energy.
Yellow Flower
Originally posted on todayismygifttoyou.ie this was an entry for Today FM’s Us Day.
In this image, a bright yellow flower takes center stage against a backdrop of pale red blocks with painted black mortar between them. The contrast between the vibrant yellow and the muted red creates a striking visual effect, drawing the eye to the delicate petals of the flower. The black mortar lines provide a sense of structure and order to the composition, framing the flower and highlighting its beauty. Despite the simplicity of the scene, the careful arrangement of colors and shapes creates a sense of depth and texture, evoking the warmth and vibrancy of a summer day.
