Sky Watch Friday!

Time to share the beauty of your skies with us! Sky Watch is generously hosted each week by Klaus, Sandy, Ivar, Wren, Fishing Guy and Louise! Click here to sign up and enjoy beautiful skies from all over the world!



Here in Seattle we have some of the most beautiful skies ever and it is so much fun to share them with you every week!

And what is this creature floating about our deck?



Beautiful clouds and sky as seen from my favorite park above the harbor near our house.



The next three are just some of the many, many varieties we can see on any given day! They always make it worthwhile to take a minute to look up! Have a great weekend!

    Aren't clouds the most amazing things? Your photos are wonderful.

    What is that creature? It must be a huge glowing flying squirrel that got way too much radiocative radiation when Chernobyl blowed up.

    That looks like some one-eyed square pants creature above your deck Sylvia! :)
    Lovely shots all; but I think the last one is stunning.

    That creature reminds me of Woodstock from Peanuts. And I've been to your park. What a great view from up there. I stumbled upon the park the day I went to Ballard and Golden Gardens.

    Your skies are always lovely and today's series is no exception. We've not seen many clouds at all lately ... just blue skies once the early morning grey skies clear ;--)
