Easter Dinner
Had nine people around our table tonight for an almost impromptu Easter dinner. Was only planned since yesterday afternoon.

Back To The Butterflies
Spent a few hours at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park with the Holden family. Went to walk around in general, but to see the Butterfly Jungle exhibit in particular. Bought me a bright yellow SpongeBob t-shirt first. Butterflies loved it. (pics to come)

Fun Learning Game
Played an online game developed for the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Impressed at how much effort went into making this game interactive and fun. Plus it just looks really good.

Beautiful Hooded Oriole
While shooting photos of a family of seven squirrels in the backyard today, this amazingly colorful bird landed on one of our plumeria plants. After searching online to try and identify it, I finally found a site that helped me identify it as a male Hooded Oriole.

A couple of days ago I added some of my posted photos into the MostlyPhoto group on Flickr and today the group’s admin Lisa Bettany (of Mostly Lisa) commented (however briefly) on two of my shots (photo 1 / photo 2). The really bizarre coincidence part is that she commented while I was watching her …
