SWF>>>>Backyard sunset


Here are some sunset photos from my backyard and  a youtube video of the same sunset with the sounds of a cardinal and some very loud frogs.



The sky and clouds turned a fiery orange color and ended with some pretty pinks. I alway enjoy watching the sunsets from my deck. It is a wonderful nature show watching the sky, listening to the birds and the frogs.












To see more beautiful skies from around the world check out : Skywatch Friday.  Thanks to the hosting group of Skywatch: Sylvia, Wren, Sandy and Klaus.  Thanks for stopping by to see my skies. I wish you all a wonderful weekend.

  5. Isn't it amazing what you can see close to home, if only you open your eyes?

    SKY OF WONDER

    Sky of wonder, sky of bliss,
    Who would think a sky like this
    Would permit my eyes to see
    Sun and moon and stars for free?

  15. Eileen, I can't tell you what a delight it was to see and hear this lovely post. That video took me right back to listening to the frogs in New Hampshire. Here in the desert of New Mexico, the frogs/toads only come roaring out for a night or two after an especially heavy rain. With the awful drought this year, we haven't heard any at all. Your post was like balm to my soul, really.

  36. This is the most excellent series of sunsets I have seen in the past time! Thanks for sharing. Thanks for your visit. BTW I am a grandma, but all the same very proud of my grandchildren and my children too. Unfortunately my husband died in 1999, so he never saw the youngest of my grand children. Thanks again for visiting.

  42. Hi Eileen, Gorgeous sunset! Your deck is a wonderful place to hang out. Hearing the croaking and chirping makes me want to be outside wading in a stream of water. Guess I'd best wait till it gets warm again. lol!
