Alighting from the Redline Bus that took me to Ross, I stepped into a gale of a wind and driving rain. I managed a look around but then quickly sought the relative calm of my motel room some fifty metres from the Swollen Macquarie River. At dusk this is what I saw... Yes, it was cold, too!

Reddish Egrets are my favorite of the Egrets. It's not just their good looks, it's their personality! They often shade the water while hunting, run, jump, fly and contort their bodies as they work hard to nab a meal trying its best not to be nabbed. This guy assumed a regal pose as he was about to touch down in the shallows.

Looked like a good clear dawn, and I got up to catch the sun rising above the lake water. But when I drove down the hill I found the Vale in fog -- so instead I went to see the sun break through between the hay bales.

The bales were welcoming and I had a great time. (May post one of those sometime.)

On the way home I drove past the Avenue in Halton, and stopped for a sunbeam or two in the short time they lasted..

 

Please go for Light Box and then FullScreen.

Evening view in the pass as setting sun lights the in bound clouds. Thanks for looking and may your day be good.

Great Blue Heron on the Hunt

The recent rains created an interesting diffusion effect.

 

I'll be off site from May 20-25.

 

I recommend a quick look at the full screen view. There are so many details!

While there were plenty of ospreys along the Louisiana gulf coast, I was seriously lucky to get so close to capture this shot!

Some things just

seem more effective in black and white (as this small, inconspicuous spider)

 

I am not very fond of posting photo's older than a week, but this time I'll use my right because I'm on vacation and the only technical thing that I have is my mobile phone.

HMM!

As always, thank you so much for your visits, comments and faves!

10. Part of a series done in the industrial waterfront area of Sunset Park in Brooklyn....not at sunset, but in the early morning on a foggy day.

Taken early morning as the sun shone into this fault line chasm lighting up the stream soon to be dark and featureless as the moment passed.

Cuckoo coming into land. It took quite a few visits to get this image in the right conditions.

A Walk In The Clouds....

 

There is a beauty in a chilly December morning that can only be experienced by getting up early and getting outdoors;. the view through the bedroom window doesn't even compare.

 

It is the smack of the bone chilling cold on your cheeks, the rush of winter air as it is inhaled through your nose. it is the sound of the crisp grass crunching underfoot, it is even the sound of frosty fabric swish swishing as you walk...and all of this is only experienced through the briskness and chill of a December morn.

 

Today the sunrise cut through a thin mist that hung lazily in the air, floating just a few inches off the ground but not high enough to reach the tree tops. The new dawn sky alight with yellow and blue made the moment that much more special...

 

As i made my way home only a few short minutes later, I looked back only to see the entire scene had changed; the sky had dimmed losing its brilliance and the fog had begun to dissolve and vanished into the far distance. that brief but memorable moment now forever lost never to be repeated exactly the same way.

 

Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,
