Thanks for stopping by for a visit. We visited the Japanese tea garden when we visited SF! The photo is lovely and so peaceful looking. We have a heron that flies by our house every summer on the way to and from the recharge pond down the irrigation ditch (canal).

Easy to write a small book about ... thank you for this nice photography. Wearing "them" in ink after an accident, makes them indeed birds of life for me. Please have a wonderful Sunday.
This is one of the most beautiful pictures I've sen in quite awhile. I like this one a lot. And the place looks very beautiful. It must be fantastic to be there.
Barb, thank you and it was a pleasure visiting you.
Kass, exactly, I was hearing this call, KKKAAASSS that must have been for you :D
Ratty, it's got that Japanese zen feel to it, it's very quiet and beautiful. Though now is when the tourists start to descend on all of these gardens so it's a little less quiet.
Eg, thank you so much.
Jennifer, :) you caught it. They are not real, they are steel sculptures.
Squirrel, that's what I liked most, the reflections.
Ancient digger, you caught it too :) they are sculptures.
Vanilla, they are sculptures though so well done, they do look real.
Jane, thank you, you are very welcome.
Paula, thanks so much for visiting and commenting.

Michelle, Mrs.M, Thanks for your kind compliments xoxo
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
