Who Am I? What Am I Doing Here?
- Vicki Lane
- western NC, United States
- I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors. I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out. As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over five years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures. There's more information about me and my books on my web site: http://vickilanemysteries.com/

These two remind me of little knights, challenging each other in their respective colours.
I didn't realize that was a woodpecker. Cute pictures!
Enough for everyone but selfishness is a must sometimes...
That's a red-bellied woodpecker and they are fiercer than the blue jays.
hahaha cute and pretty
o such danger and intrigue at the bird feeder...lol...fun interaction vicki...
Vicki, I didn't know about the ferocity of the red-bellied woodpecker. Guess that jay was making a wise strategic exit.
Your photos are extraordinary!
xo
Our woodpeckers rule here too!
Our woodpeckers rule here too!
Delightful.
What kind of lens did you use?
My lens is a Nikkor 18-200mm, Kath.
Since I do not particularly like Blue Jays and since I LOVE Red-bellied Woodpeckers, this post is perfect! And Blue Jay...you don't stand a chance.
Lucky healthy birds to have sunflower seeds!
Neat pics and so cute conversation!... love it!..

You take such good pictures of birds. I see the woodpecker and cardinals out of our kitchen window but there is a screen on it and the camera focuses on the screen.
No snow here yet – we are in the mid 50s today with full sun – I hope we get at least a day of snow this year.
*giggles*
Arnie's been around Austria a lot these days. Now I shall always think of a Blue Jay when I spot him. ;-)
