About the Book
Sunsets over Lake Barkley, flowers, a variety of wild animals, birds, flowers and insects are images that are of interest to this transplanted Illinois city girl. Priscilla has only to look out the window to capture breathtaking sunsets and witness the changing seasons. Flowers, "the ones the deer and other critters don't eat," add brilliant color to her collection and are a draw for Hummingbirds and butterflies.
A myriad of wildlife seem to co-exist side
by side near and around Priscilla's home and provide her with great entertainment as well as subjects for her passion, photography.
