Humpback whales of the Southern hemisphere
The annual migration of the Humpback whales from the waters of Antartica to the tropical Great Barrier Reef, off the Queensland, Australian eastern coastline is a sight to see.

My journey to Quilt

Color in the memory
I lived near the mountains for a long time. At that time, I liked walking on the mountain road. In there I met many colors that the season brings.

Birds Do It...Bees Do It
I snapped this pic in my garden. It's a migrant! Let’s consider the word MIGRANT. "Migrant" connotes species moving, temporarily, for a particular reason, with the intention of returning to its origins. There are, most notably, migrant workers. There are far greater numbers of migrants in other species, however. Consider: birds, butterflies, bees, diseases, fish, to name a few. When we usually think of the word migrant “people” come to mind, those that relocate, for insta
