Week 35

Picture 240:  This Greenwing Macaw was strikingly beautiful at the 2012 Nature Fest.  The Bird is from Wildlife Encounters. It was a pretty cool bunch of animals this year.  What will we see next year?    
Picture 241:  Owen is petting a giant snake.  He was quite intrigued.  Grandma was visiting but she wasn't as into the snake as Owen  was.      
Picture 242:  A ram at Beech Hill Farm giving me the stink eye.  He didn't need to worry.  I am not silly.  I know better than to get too close to something with horns that big.      
Picture 243:  Feeding a goat at Hackleboro Orchards.  This is a pick your own apple farm with a GORGEOUS view.  Their apples are AWESOME this year--no hail damage like Meadow Ledge--although the apples do taste great, they just look funky.  Mother Nature can be soooo localized.  These two places are only 6.9 miles apart as the crow flies.  
Picture 244:  This is what the apples look like at Hackleboro Orchards.  You need to go there to pick apples.  I am not just telling you, I am ORDERING you to do this.  Trust me on this one.   
Picture 245:  The view from the tower at Hackleboro Orchards.  Maybe a little redundant about the location, but look at the amazing difference in pictures.  Variety is cool.    
Picture 246:  A car seen in Concord.  How very meta--not only does the bumper sticker say "BUMPERSTICKER", the license plate says "LICENS".  Yeah, way too meta for me.      
And, as always, for the photos that didn't make the top 7 this week, check out my flicker stream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sonyacarlson/
