Dear Sherry....I have been transported to another world.....A world full of peace and beauty.
Beautiful music, for me personally very moving.....

The swans are so elegant, aren't they and the rabbits so cute...

A wonderful way to start my weekend....thank you.

So beautiful! Beginning and ending with the graceful swans :-} And that sweet little bunny sniffing (was it your tomato plants)?
I agree with Cheryl "a wonderful way to start my weekend".
Hope your weekend is wonderful too Sherry.

Wonderful music! Was that bunny a baby one?

Speaking of butterflies, For the summer reading programs, we are hatching 5 butterflies for the kids. I forget what kind they are but right now they in their cocoon. I do hope they come out when the kids are there.

What a great piece of music. Saint-Saen's greatest work.

Dear Sherry, I enjoyed every bit of your slideshow! Swans and dragonflies and flowers...
By the way, those 2 tiny little creatures feeding from flowers - are they hummers? I've seen them couple of times only and a little bit confused..

Dear Cheryl,
I am very slow this week with my responses please excuse my delay.
Thank you for enjoying this slide show.
The swans speak to me. While my husband and I were on vacation last summer we stayed where these swans lived. It was magical. I have kept a few swan pictures in my computor and every now and again I set one as my desktop.

Dear Sue,
Since I have been feeling better I seem to be out and about more. I have not read one of your poems for far too long. I shall put on my visiting hat and come by.
Glad you enjoyed the slide show. All sorts of critters this past week!

Dear Carol,
So glad you enjoy the slide shows. This one was very fun to do. I really like The Carnival of the Animals Suite, by Camille Saint-Saens. This slide show was my tribute to the French!
Namaste,
Sherry

Dear Deb,
Thank you. That bunny was eating my Bright Eyes Cosmos! Thank goodness I have many of them.
I am catching up tonight, hope to come by tomorrow for a "sit a spell" and see how your gardens grow.

Dear Cathy,
It is a baby bunny! So cute too and not at all shy.
How wonderful you are "hatching" butterflies! The kids will love it and I bet you will too. Hope you take pictures.
I shall pop over, I am WAY far behind this week.

Dear Science Guy 288,
Saint-Saens is wonderful. This cd is a great one. There is also "Bolero" by Maurice Ravel. Too long for slide show here on Corner but a piece of music I love.

Dear Aluajala,
I think you are refering to the Clearwing Moths.
They are small and act like Hummingbirds.
So glad you enjoy the slide shows. I hope they are not too repeative!
I have done slide shows now once a week for almost a year. I may need to think of something different...
