I was sifting through a month’s worth of photos this evening – not a task I enjoy.  But the alternative was to catch up on work.  Photo sorting won out – at least for a few minutes! This photo was … Continue reading A moment in time

Her name was Kibbles Anthony Lisieux Holguin

May 18, 2015February 9, 2022 bigbertha

Notes: Considering how long I’ve had Big Bertha’s Adventures, I think this is the first time I’ve featured Kibbles in a blog.  I wish it was under better circumstances.  5/15/15 will be remembered as a very sad day. Three events … Continue reading Her name was Kibbles Anthony Lisieux Holguin

May 12, 2015February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I can’t take all the credit for this photo.  My friend Tore spotted this bloom and alerted me.  He knows I specialize in photos with creepy crawlers.  (Admittedly, I’m probably the only one that likes them.  But I’m documenting nature … Continue reading Party at the Prickly Pear Blossom!

This amazing specimen was spotted outside a photography studio we use at work.  Although our work was complete for the day, I knew I’d spend at least a half hour taking photos.  It was too interesting not to photograph.  It … Continue reading Monstrous Beauty

I took a Monday off from work last month to visit the Dallas Arboretum.  Zero color/lighting adjustments were made to the photos in Photoshop or any other program.  What you see is what I photographed just as I saw it. … Continue reading Elegance in the Garden

Wheel Bug Nymph!

April 20, 2015February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I spied these insects along a trail at a park in Plano.  I’ve never seen anything like them.  Giant ants, perhaps?  They certainly are creepy – yet fascinating…. I did some research and discovered these are Wheel Bug nymphs.  Friends … Continue reading Wheel Bug Nymph!
