This evening we went up on the hill to watch the sunset.
Just after it set, we watched the Chimney Swifts circle and go down the tall chimney.
Then we drove to the drugstore to pick up some prescriptions. On the way there, the sky did this.
Next to us in the drive-thru, this dog was apparently picking up his master's drugs. He did not like my camera, and growled at me, giving me the evil eye the entire time.
On a balmy autumn night
We watch as the swifts eat while in flight
They chase the bugs up in the air
I love to just watch and stare
Coming back to earth, I feel heavy & slow
As I watch the sky in it's final glow

Oh, that is a very protective doggie.. he must be thinking what you were up to... hahaha... cute!
Beautiful sunset, funny about the dog. :)
Your twilight photos are gorgeous! Nothing becomes a day quite like its dawn and its evening... I had to laugh at that big dog... "No paparazzi, please!" It said that in no uncertain terms!
What a wonderful way to end the day seeing a gorgeous sunset Ginny. Have a good weekend and thanks for all the comments.
love your ending quote by you! beautiful sunset & well trained dog...wonder if I could get our cat to drive.
Just beautiful. I always think that sunsets at this time of year are prettiest.
What a beautiful sunset that is.
My friend has been taking sunset photos lately too and we have had some majestic ones as this one is. I love the look on the dog's face, as he wondered what you were doing.
The photos are so amazing! The dog definitely didn't look happy, he thought you were up to no good lol.
its odd that a bird dog like this one would growl.. he is beautiful. big hates cameras, so maybe this one does too..
I like your poem -- and your beautiful sky photos.
Beautiful sunset. Camera shy dog. Nice poem. Have a wonderful day.
What a beautiful sunset and I love your poem!
The doggie must have been very serious about picking up the medicine :-)
Beautiful sunset pictures, but it is all those Chimney Swifts that got my attention. Around here people get excited to see one or two of them.
Oh, Ginny. These photos make my heart sing...and I love your poem.
Ginny,
I LOVE your poem. My dad's favorite bird is the Chimney Swift. This is a lovely post.
Thank you for sharing,
Carla
*haha* That dog's face... priceless! I would have liked to see your expression in return, Ginny. :-) Love, Andrea xoxo
Gorgeous, simply gorgeous....
Delightful to see them flying down to the chimney.
Ahhh, the dog "gave you the evil eye"!!! ~chuckle~ I do that a lot, when needed!!!!!!!! Not to you, of course!!!!!! ~smile~
We do not have a drive-through drug pickup. But our drug store has sent our meds, to our home, during this Wuhan Virus Pandemic. And it has been very, very helpful.

Beautiful sky and swifts.
How romantic, even when picking up prescriptions.
Enjoy your day.

Disco would have done the same thing!

That dog thought you looked suspicious! :)
