Wow, that is really beautiful. I've always admired hand-blown glass. I think is an amazing art.

Oh, by the way. I was maybe 30-35 feet from the heron when I took that. Not close enough to make it fly off.

I would enjoy each one of them! Lovely.

Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comment. Sorry for the glitch - again. I appreciate your patience. Come back tomorrow for more of Fairhaven!

What a wonderful shot of the hand blown glass.

Thanks for visiting mine and to answer your question - The flowers in the foreground of my shot were poppies and I think a few others mixed in. We didn't stop there but almost the whole way to Wilmington from Raleigh the highway has roadside flowers which started 20 to 30 years ago with a highway beautification campaign. The parts where all the flowers grow are state maintained although it looks like they go with the farms and houses in certain spots.
