T-Shirt Tuesday: “Savannah Wildlife T-Shirt Series” #11

So a while back, I did a short series of T-shirt Tuesdays with cool wildlife T-shirts I saw at the Savannah Wildlife Refuge gift shop.

Recently we went back, and I snapped a few more photos. (With a few folks staring at me for pulling the T-shirts off the racks and positioning them for my photo op.)

Today … the Heroic Heron.

Some of Robert’s photos of herons …

May we not be afraid to get our feet wet today.

HAPPY WET-FOOTED TUESDAY!

(This butterfly looks so much younger than my poor old hands.)

Let’s try to get out of our cocoons today.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Savannah Wildlife T-Shirt Series” #8

So a while back, I did a short series of T-shirt Tuesdays with cool wildlife T-shirts I saw at the Savannah Wildlife Refuge gift shop.

We went back the other day for a morning hike, and I snapped a few other photos. (With a few folks staring at me for pulling the T-shirts off the racks and positioning them for my photo op.)

Today, the Elegant Eagle.

Just look at the eagle’s truth!

(I am increasingly appreciating the “bald is beautiful” sentiment.)

For eons, I taught writing and linguistics at Georgia Southern University, whose mascot was the magnificent eagle.

May your spirit soar today.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Savannah Wildlife T-Shirt Series” #7

Recently, when Robert and I drove over to the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, I fell in love with a series of very cool T-shirts featuring area animals and what we can learn from them. So I decided to feature one on each T-shirt Tuesday for a while.

Today, the Loveable Ladybug.

A few of HR’s Ladybug Photos …

May we follow her wise advice and “spot new opportunities” today.

Today, the Delightfully Dazzling Dragonfly.

Up close and personal with a friendly dragonfly down in Georgia’s Okefenokee Swamp south of us …

And coincidentally, yesterday Donna sent me a photo of a dragonfly she spotted on her car’s antenna …

With the dragonfly, may we appreciate this long summer day.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Savannah Wildlife T-Shirt Series” #4

Recently, when Robert and I drove over to the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, I fell in love with a series of very cool T-shirts featuring area animals and what we can learn from them. So I decided to feature one on each T-shirt Tuesday for a while.

Today, the Awesome Alligator.

Okay, TIB (Truth in Blogging): I respect this animal, but am ridiculously scared of him/her as well. The alligator is common in my area of the country. They are found primarily in freshwater swamps and marshes, as well as in rivers, lakes and smaller bodies of water. My older daughter and her family live over on Skidaway Island here in Savannah. Alligators often sun themselves on the banks of lagoons bordering houses.

My first grandson Daniel was just a little one when I would carry him or push him in the stroller on walkways near some of those lagoons. I would always get so very nervous when I would see an alligator stretching out in the sun. I would pick up my pace.

This is the only type I can tolerate …

And even with a baby alligator, I look a tad disheveled and out of mental control.

Here are a few of Robert’s pictures of alligators from our travels near us. I am posting them with my eyes closed. So I hope you are able to see them.

Actually, some of the alligator’s advice is pretty sage. Although I can’t remember any of it, and can’t force myself to scroll back up to read it. You do that for me, please.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Savannah Wildlife T-Shirt Series” #1

Yesterday when Robert and I ventured over to the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, we stopped by the Visitor Center for trail maps and took a gander inside the little nature-oriented gift shop. We are nerdy enough to always be on the lookout for new magnets and ornaments for our travel tree for Christmas.

I fell IN LOVE with a series of very cool T-shirts about area animals and what we can learn from them. So I decided to feature one on each T-shirt Tuesday for the next seven weeks.

First the Tremendous Turtle …

I love the “Be well-rounded” wisdom. The older I get, the rounder I seem to be.

A friendly turtle HR and I encountered at Okefenokee Swamp Park,

Let’s try to follow at least some of the wise turtle’s advice.

Cutesy Tuesday: “Little Free Libraries”

An occasional blog post category highlighting what I consider to be … cute.

All the “Little Free Libraries” I keep discovering.

Like this one at Seminole State Park in Donalsonville, GA (which Robert and I visited recently).

And where I found this very cool coffee table-ish book.

As frustrating as it is to me, and as disappointing that I’m sure it is to you, I will probably never be a saint.

Here’s HR and a Little Library at nearby Lake Mayer, where we often walk.

Do you have the Little Free Libraries in your area?
