Dog Walk – Dec. 3, 2013

Today’s dog walk was fun and some of our usual friends were out. The Green Heron was searching for bugs to eat. Then Pixel decided we needed to go a couple blocks further than normal, which took us past a neighbor’s yard full of wonderful lush, green plants.

Today’s Dog Walk

I am owned by two dogs, WeeGee and Pixel. Pixel LOVES her walkies. On our daily walks, I usually try to talk photos in our neighborhood. Here are a few scenes from today. Enjoy!
