Some more of my random photos.

So, come and pick the ones that you like. As I go about in my photography habit, I always take photos of the things in nature that my eyes see, such as this today.
Just a beautiful view of our cloudy mountain range.

Mountains, birds, butterflies, and even squirrels. Just a bagful of nature shots.

Now when the sun says good day to the mountains, I like to be out there. So much to see that it buries the stresses and the problems in my life. Almost like a mother that gently embraces me. I had a stressful meeting today with two great guys that decided or was forced to distance themselves from society. Now I won't go into detail, save to say that we don't know what revengeful tongues can do to other souls. Especially when the tongues have not heard both sides of the story. Thankfully we will sort things out, but it always leaves a bad taste in my mouth. But I digress and come let me show you what I have for you today.

I showed you this Malachite sunbird youngster last week and said that he will slowly change into his adult colors.

Soon, he will have a solid green head and shoulders.

A little squirrel was watching me on the branch of a tree behind the pincushion bush that the bird sat on.

This Swallow tail butterfly was busy sipping nectar from the periwinkle flowers.

And then this little one below drew my attention.

So, I moved a bit closer and it spotted me.

Not sure if I was going to catch him or hurt him.

Its best thought was to get out of there.

Finally, I loved the green pastel colors of this mountain's peaks.

I am sure that you will agree with me when I say that I cannot just bin all of these photos. I have many more random photos taken on my journeys into nature, and over time, I intend to show you most of them. Yes, they have nothing in relation with each other, except to say that they are all nature's residents, and out there in their own free world.

No, we never get the urge to catch anything and to keep it at home in a cage. It's enough that we are all caged in our own lives, especially by the laws and the ever increasing taxes of our failing governments. That is the reason for my escapes into nature, as it is always to have that feeling of freedom and serene sanity.
The chance to take photos is just a great bonus, as way before I had a camera, I had the habit of disappearing into nature.
Just my happy place.

I hope that you have enjoyed the pictures.
