Doug's Project 365

Like Lis, I too am sharing a photo of the stage of Little Shop of Horrors, which we saw with Steve. It was a good production made that much better by the intimate venue: in the 2nd row, we were no more than a few feet from the performers at times.

Naturalist friends, what do I have here? I noticed these little beads covering a piece of fishing line that hangs vertically in our yard.

Dime for scale, and I used a light from the side for better contrast so the color is not necessarily perfectly accurate. Click through to see the full resolution, and for a wider shot.

I assume they’re insect or spider egg cases of some sort, but what?

This is the first wild turkey I’ve seen in our neighborhood. I know they’re generally common in the Boston area, but we haven’t had them here. Until now.

Coming into Falmouth Harbor at the end of our vacation.

I played 2 varieties of golf today: disc golf and miniature golf. One is much more photogenic.

I almost always take some variant of this picture on the Vineyard. The light is great, the colors and textures are nice, and the buildings, sea, and sky form an attractive composition. And it’s just about always ruined by that stupid DirecTV dish.

One could get used to this morning view.

Kat loves evening sky photos so much she’s even willing to try with her phone camera.

The garden in front of this year’s vacation rental has these striking purple flowers. I soon realized these are artichokes, and this is what they look like when nobody harvests them.

Clouds & wind made for a chilly day, but a lovely evening backdrop for the houses along Ocean Park.
