Diary of a Sunset

I’ve decided to do a study of sunsets.  They are such short lived things and frequently beautiful from this location.

Color intensifies at the horizon short after the sun sets.

The band of color intensifies and spreads north and south.

The sky color isn't the only thing changing.  The hills take on varying hues of blues and purples as they fade into the distance.

The whole sky takes on the deepest shade from the original band of color.

And then it begins to fade to pastels.

Sunsets here can last for an hour, or they can be quick flashes of changing colors lasting only a few minutes like the one last night.  I don’t think we’ll ever get tired of watching them.

Speaking of watching things, we now bring you the Bunny Channel.

Mishkin is intently sending thought waves at the bunny, "You don't see the kitty behind the glass, just waves of grass waving in front of you... come closer...."  It didn't work but it was a good try.

I asked the bunny what he thought of Mishkin, and I got a nose wiggle and whiskers flew around his face.  Then he hopped off the porch and went about his business.  We had a major convention of these little guys outside our window last night, judging by the noise level.  They were even growling at each other, a very odd noise indeed, and some drumming was also going on.
