Oops! Weekly Photo Challenge
A favorite mistake of mine is to forget to change the camera settings when I go from one light source to another. These were taken outside with the camera set for fluorescent lighting. I have more of these kinds of photos than I like to admit.

Leap of Faith
The old man called her Faith (not her real name but she didn’t worry about it). She feigned indifference anytime he looked her way (as cats are wont to do), ate the food he left for her.
The yellow bird just showed up one day. She watched him plug in the cord attached to it. It came alive! The wings moved; its head turned back and forth. It was going to attack!
Instinctively, she launched herself from her hiding place in the tree, claws fully extended, aiming for the big yellow head. She had only one thought in mind: Protect!

Along The Cliff
Spotted this cliff on the Violet Crown Trail in Austin, Texas. I don’t know what made the array of indentations. Can birds do that?
