    Why did you choose your avatar? In what way does it represent you? Do you change it often?

    Post it here and tell us your story.

    My avatar is in honor of "our" owl. She seems to reside somewhere on our property and we hear her hooting sometimes.

    She's pink because we heard her at dawn one Sunday and DH decided our owl must be female. He says "A male would have the good sense to sleep in on weekends." :rolleyes:

    My avatar is simple, just one of my favorite dahlias. If I get a good shot of my hummingbird when she returns in later this month I might change it.

    Nice thread :thumbsup: I do change my avatar often, depending on my mood :p When I am browsing a site, if I like a picture I save it as my avatar. Its like the picture jumps out at me and says, "hey, me for your next avatar!" and I don't want to disappoint it. Current avatar is from an article in a Russian magazine on Indian bindi. I felt a strong connection and went with it. My current avatar :

    Your dahlia is beautiful! Did you grow it yourself?

    Do you mind adding a picture of your avatar to your post? That way when you change your avatar, your post will still make sense to people who read this thread later. Thanks. :)

    Will do.
    This dahlia picture is from the Swan Island Dahlias catalog, and I will be growing it for the first time this year. I grow dahlias every year, but have always been intimidated by the giants. I hope I can do justice to it.

    Lotus invites me all the time. My previous Avataar was a thousand petal lotus and this one is a simple one. I am actually looking for a golden lotus.
