2025 Which Way Challenge (CWWC): Any Dirt roads or dirt pathways or trails [Bonus if RED is included]

Cee’s Which Way Challenge (CWWC)

Hope y’all have had a fantastic week so far. It’s Friday already and time for another Which Way ChallengeThis week we are looking at (CWWC): Any Dirt roads or dirt pathways or trails [Bonus if RED is included]They can be any type of Dirt Road, Dirt Pathway or trail you travel as you take a walk/hike. Remember your Which Ways should be clearly discernible. Since the month is #SimplyRED for Becky’s Squares, I’ll be checking to see if y’all have any RED in your Which Ways. The photos can be ones you’ve taken recently or from your archives. Let’s all have fun!

Here are my Which Ways for this week’s challenge …

2023 NPC #29: Spiders and Their Webs

I mostly see Spider Webs. It is a rare occasion when I can see and capture a Spider 🕷️ in its web. I’m not well mastered in the art of capturing Spiderwebs when I’m snapping photos out in nature. That being said; here is my contribution for Denzil’s Nature Photo Challenge #29.

NPC #13: Butterflies

All of the butterfly 🦋 photos I’ve captured so far were all taken within the grounds of Anne Springs Close Greenway. First photos are of Eastern Tiger Swallowtails shot with an iPhone 13 Pro.

Male tiger swallowtails

Male tiger swallowtails are bright yellow with black tiger stripes on the tops of their wings. You can sometimes find groups of male swallowtail butterflies gathered on the ground around mud puddles or other damp spots. This is a behavior called puddling. The butterflies are sucking minerals and other substances out of the damp ground. (This behavior can be seen quite often at the spillway at Anne Springs Close Greenway.)

Other butterflies found within Anne Springs Close Greenway:

Asterocampa celtis,
the hackberry emperor,
is a North American butterfly
that belongs to the
brushfooted butterfly family,
Nymphalidae.
It gets its name from
the hackberry tree.

FOWC: HOME

What do you think about when you hear the term home?

According to Wikipedia, Home or domicile is a space used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for one or many humans and sometimes animal companions.

Do you have to have an actual house to have a home? Some might say you do; regardless of whether it be a house, an apartment or a mobile home. Still others would disagree. Myself, I would disagree.

One of my favorite sayings is “Home is Where the Heart is.” What does it mean by “Home is Where the Heart is?” It means simply that your home that your home will always be the place for which you feel the deepest affection, no matter where you are. Often times the place I have the greatest affection for has no walls at all. I am most at home in the woods surrounded by trees and the vast beauty of God’s creation out in nature.

Recently I have been living with my daughter and her son taking care of him 24/7. We moved a week ago from an apartment in Rock Hill, South Carolina to a townhome in Gastonia, North Carolina. Really only a little less than an hour away from where we were. Do I consider it my home? Not really. But maybe temporarily, since my heart lies with my grandson.

Moving from one dwelling to another can be extremely stressful. Packing, unpacking, all while trying to keep a three-year-old entertained can take a toll on a person. I know all too well. Especially if the move is not well planned in advance. I do not handle last minute decisions or moves all that well.

We are now in a townhome in a very quiet neighborhood unlike our last one which was very very noisy. Here no one live above us. It is so wonderful not to hear footsteps all hours of the night or day.

Coleman and I have been taking walks around the neighborhood investigating our new surroundings. Seeing what we can see and taking photos of interesting sights.

Coleman is still adjusting having only been here for a week and a half so far, however, I think he likes the new place so much more than the old one and is happier here being able to feel free to walk around, I know I do not know what I would do if I did not have him to love and share my love of nature.

Weekend Sky #87 – Full Moon

It is rare that I get out of an evening to be able to shoot some photos. Fortunately one evening over the weekend I was able to observe a full moon rising in the night sky. I only had my iPhone with me, but I figured why not go ahead a snap a few photos of the moon. I hope you enjoy what I was able to enjoy seeing the moon in the evening Sky.
