It's because of Venus.
The thing in the middle is an antenna for the internet. I like the "stargazing varmint" possibility.

The thing in the middle is an antenna for the internet, no idea if it's for Wi-Fi. I like the "stargazing varmint" possibility.

I almost missed the planet, and would have if I were not zooming in on the roof line looking for varmits. Given the time of day the odds were heavily in favor of Venus.

I took this photo just for fun. It looks like a UFO was searching for something on the ground:

Here are three of the pictures I took today that I really like:

This one is cropped. The following two photos are enhanced.

I had to resize these two. I hope the quality is still good enough.

I like the shorebird photo best, which bird is it?

Are the sunflowers grown for oil or seed?

The sunflowers are grown for oil, afaik.

Thank you, Diane!

Believe me, I can! I just don't show them here. And I delete them as quickly as possible from my iPad.
