My First Poem

This is my very first poem I have ever wrote, so it may not be that great, but here it is. It all started when I was watering a large field of pumpkins.

Thy Seed

How lovely is thy seed, that
thee has planteth
may ye watereth, nurtureth,
and watcheth thou grow

Feeding The Cedar Waxwing.

Now, I do have to tell you that I did not set up the photo with the bird and the hose nozzle, it just sort of happened. It was in our walnut tree and we watched it fly across our field and landed on the hose nozzle so, of course I followed it and took it's picture. I think it posed quite nicely. Don't you?

Cedar Waxwings Fledge the Nest.

The cedar waxwings have fledged the nest. Here are a bunch of photos I took of the babies. Enjoy!

I'm wishing you all a happy and fun 4th of July! 

Reflection On Water.

Just a few more...

Yes this is the same bird as before....

Rufous Hummingbird

I'm in hummingbird haven right now. I can't seem to get enough pictures of these little jewels. 

Cedar Waxwing

Yesterday morning I discovered that we have a cedar waxwing nest in one of our apple trees in our backyard. The babies are so precious!

Hummingbird

A Female Rufous Hummingbird. Finally, after 3 or 4 years of waiting to get a excellent shot of one of these I managed to get one!!!  They are really fast, so it is hard to take a picture of one in flight. Enjoy!

A Little Bit About Myself

My name is Kaylie Mae Brown. I'm fifteen in a half and I live out in the country in western Washington. If you like the mountains it's a grand place to be. I think there is no better place in this world then to spend your life exploring and hiking the mountains and woods! Nature is a lifelong friend. Watching wildlife is fun to do.I have two younger sisters and I've been homeschooled since I was nine. I live on a small farm and we grow a lot of our own food. Hiking, birding, singing, playing the guitar, playing the piano, reading, gardening, being with my family and spending time outdoors are things I greatly enjoy. I LOVE nature photography. I started using my Grandma's camera when I was five or so and I haven't put a camera down since.Last year I joined a government club and I'm in poultry 4-H as well along with photography. I really like classical music. Beethoven was an amazing composer, actually they all were... Lord Willing, one day, I think it would be fun if I can grab my camera and jump on a train or plane and spend some time travelling and photographing all the spectacular places that are out there just calling my name. I would like to go to Europe, Ecuador, Galapagos Islands, Austria, Africa, Washington D.C. and any other place that I have not been to before. I would like to hike the alps one day. Birds - are so interesting. From photographing to writing about them to reading, I enjoy it all. I like to sit down and observe them in there natural habitat. I can't express to you how happy I am with my life right now! One's youth goes by to fast and I like to cherish and live every day to the fullest. God Bless You All. Thanks for viewing my blog!
