Precipitation Pause

For all you nature lovers, here are some wonderful flower and bird pictures (with a squirrel thrown in for good measure).

Rain…rain…and a little more rain.
That’s what the weather has been like for the last several days here in the Atlanta suburbs. And if the forecasters are to be trusted, that’s what the near future holds as well.

Now, I can appreciate an occasional shower or a few sprinkles here and there, but too much gray and dampness leaves me longing for some sunshine. So, when I looked out the window this afternoon and saw that there was a pause in the precipitation, I ran (did not pass go, did not collect $200) outside to snap a few pictures.

The first stop was the front yard, to capture the brightness and the beauty of a few flowers.
