Dim the lights!

What has happened to Spring?! Who dimmed the lights?! It was soo warm, bright and sunny this time last week and now - it's cold, wet and windy!

Well, I was out and about at the Bank Holiday weekend and it seems that the rain has been bringing out all of those beautiful plants and blossoms. What a picture. Here are some of my favourite colours that might brighten your days until the sun comes out again.

Then I met this guy on my travels and he was very obliging and allowed me to get up close.

When he flew off, I noticed after viewing my photos, that I got him in mid flight with his wings spread out. I shall be finding a place for him this Halloween in my preparations!

Speaking of dimming the lights....American Idol last week had me wondering if my favourite contestant - Crystal would be knocked out! I was hoping that American voters weren't going to knock her out due to a not-so-popular performance. Phew! She got through and I am hoping that she will be the winner for 2010! Who is your favourite?

Toots for now and thank you for visiting my blog.
