Smile On Saturday - Odd One Out
Two male American Wigeons swimming one direction and a male Hooded Merganser swimming the other direction. :-)
Stuck inside but I did take some seed out for my friends and they are enjoying on this miserable day.
For Gypsy.
(With a British Accent) (Sorry Gypsy.)
There once was a zebra
named Water
who was enjoying the day
with her daughter.
The light was attractive
and very proactive
And she liked the way
it caught the young laughter.
when the mind appears in the morning don't jump to the usual conclusion, "this is me, these thought are mine", instead, watch these thoughts come an go, without identifying with them in any way. If you can resist the impulse to claim each and every thought as your own, you come to a startling conclusion. You'll discover that you are the consciousness in which thoughts appear and disappear ...

An area where we often walk our dog. More often than not take my camera with me but each time I will take a single lens from the 50mm to the 100-400 such as on this occasion.
The Crows are always there and sat in a line up for me, I had the R5 in Animal AF and tracking which is amazing to see, when the box follows the nearest birds head it pretty much does the work for you .
This Fox Sparrow froze for a few moments as a Red-tailed Hawk flew over -- my only opportunity to get shots of a fast and elusive little bird while uncharacteristically out in the clear.
She's growing big for her cat perch but we need to keep her food up where Riley the dog won't get to it.

This Black Eyed Susan plant in my garden has done it’s best to be bright and cheery through a difficult year. But it has finally worm out. It’s time to let this year be behind us.
We've had two big snowstorms hit here in the past 5 days. Doc tells me there is at least three and a half foot of snow on the level ground around our cabin. You know that there is too much snow, when the mail can't arrive, and people can't get out of their driveways.
In this photo you see the trail we take that leads into the forest.
(Our daughter in Anchorage has received 30 inches in the past five days and has measured it faithfully, and also on a level surface. The people in Anchorage can't get out of their driveways either, because the neighborhood streets are the last to be plowed and the snow is currently too deep to drive in.)
I fear that it is going to be a devastating winter for the animals that live in our boreal forest. There is going to be a tremendous loss of life.
Finally!! I've searched, scoured, hunted, taken pics of peaks just to zoom in and see if I could find a mountain goat and have been blanked for years then a glance back and boom, Billy.
This is a crop, I have some really cropped, but I'm opting to post him in his surroundings.
REALLY cropped shot in comments, warning hand held
We're running out of new diners to go to, and with some misgivings we pick one that has brown stools and drab wooden booths in the pictures online. Imagine our big surprise when this is what we find! No wonder there weren't many people there. They REALLY need to update their website! The Eagle Diner was #7 of this year's Eat in Eight, and a happy choice for us. We enjoyed breakfast for lunch and set off to see what the town of Pine Hill, NJ was like....

Locals enjoy the view from the Nash Point xar park. Nash Point is a headland and beach in the Monknash Coast of the Vale of Glamorgan in south Wales, about a mile from Marcross. It is a popular location for ramblers and hiking along the cliffs, as well as a “must do” on the photographers’’ to-do list
A rocky wave-cut platform peppered with pools and gullies covers the bay lies at the base of a sphynx-like rocky headland that positively glows in the golden hour when the sun is out
With the Covid lockdown finally starting to wind down in Wales, Nash Point is conveniently only a 45 minute drive from where I work in Cardiff
