Birds of a Feather

We knew exactly which photo we were going to use when we saw that Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge for this week was feathers. Driving down Death Road in Bolivia was a very intense experience, one which we aren’t likely to forget any time soon. In the middle of the trip, we passed through a small village, really just a couple of huts. Running across the road in front of us was a chicken, no surprise there, but accompanying him was a turkey. Somehow, the thought of a turkey in the jungles of Bolivia had not crossed our minds, let alone that he should appear to be friends with the roosters and chickens that he lived with.

Daily Post Photo Challenge – Rare

There are many precious things in the world that are rare such as jewels and certain endangered species of animals. Finding your perfect soul mate can also be rare in this crazy world that we live in today. For us, though, finding that perfect moment when time stands still and the worries of the world melt away seem to be fleeting and far between. Sure, we go hiking and get into nature, but it seems that all too often it seems like the stresses of life and work somehow manage to join us on our journey. We thought that for this week’s challenge, we would share a moment in Yellowstone when everything stopped as we watched this lone moose walk silently across the freshly fallen snow.
