A pair of crowned cranes earn the nickname 'heads and tails' as one turns its head away from the camera at the Biopark Zoo in Valencia, Spain. They are beautiful birds, aren't they? Real head turners!

Beautiful Closet Doors

I love the addition of louvers on these closet doors. They would be great in a mudroom so each family member could have a vented "locker" to hide their mess.

Wild Turkey Spotting At The Cottage

I was loading the dishwasher just now and spotted a family of wild turkeys out for a walk in the tall grass toward the rear of my property. A mother, father, and two youngsters that have gotten really big since the last time I saw them. Pretty soon there will be lots of acorns down there for them to eat. They never fail to thrill me when I see them. Such big birds!
