A Frost Advisory was posted last Friday, so I picked the rest of my peppers. They are mild; good in salads!

  2. Modern harvesting machines are miracles as far as I am concerned.
    The only thing better than take photos of peppers is eating them.
    For some reason, I regard the sight of a walking stick as a good luck charm. I love them.
    I don't know what kind of hawk it is but it is very noble looking. During the coming winter here in Oklahoma we will see them perched silently waiting for a sign of a mouse or other critter that will be their dinner.

  3. The walking stick looks like a stick alright.

    I wonder do the people who work around the soybean harvest wear masks against all that dust?

  7. A beautiful hawk, and I hope you didn't get your frost - enjoy this time of the year. I'm only a beginner at birding and wouldn't know what type of hawk that is, but it is a lovely capture.

  8. The peppers look delish! I'm surprised you have frost already in Mississippi, though; we've barely had frost here in S. WI. Great photos!

  13. Wow. That stick insect is wonderful. I don't think much of it's name though, one that makes it sound unappreciated as a beautiful and fascinating insect. Not sure about your hawk as it's one we don't get in the UK but it looks like one of the Buteo or Accipiter family.

  14. Looks like a broad winged hawk to me. If it seemed a bit "tame" & dodn' t fly off right away, a broad winged. Looks kinda dry during the harvest.

    Thanks for linking in with us!
