As you can see this duck was absolutely comfortable with me. I was on the shore of the lagoon, flat on the ground, no blind. Either he did not see me or did not see me as a danger. The duck started doing his preening and other maintenance. My fingers were cold but when a scene like this happens, it is not the time to think or complain about your cold fingers. The duck was so close, I was dragging my equipment on the ground to back up without increasing my profile in order to ensure I could get the whole duck in the frame and not scare it away.

Splish Splash I am takin a bath on a sunny-warm Sunday morning.

One super wet Robin in the backyard birdbath.

Edited with a large white matte frame.

We saw a few specimen of this bird on Pebble Island but we had the best photo opportunities on Sea Lion Island ... It was an exceptional wet year for the Falklands and the large tracks created by the vehicles fill up with water and serve as bird bath ..... I was thrilled to be able to approach the Magellanic Snipe which is so similar to our Common/Wilson Snipe... a bird quite difficult to get in the open while at home except perhaps when they perch on a fence.... at home they rarely let us peek through the window of their bathing room :)

This Mallard probably knew the weekend was coming... yesterday, he gave me several rounds of the most energetic duck shakes I have ever seen.... I have taken several dozen of frames of the action but I understand what you are saying, I don't have to post them all for you to get a sense of what it was like :) I will be reasonable and in control. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Spending a beautiful day at the amazing Andrew Hayden Park in Ottawa, Canada! Best viewed large! Enjoy your day my friends, happy new week =)

Spring is on

How could I not be playful when I have such a marvelous camera and hearing the snow melting so hard that it sounds like a river coming down from my roof

 

What an awesome season

Living in the moment

Has so many dimensions

 

Puddles are to be jumped in

I did too

 

Laughs are to be laughed

I definitely do did have done

 

Talks are meant to be taken

We need the good conversations where we share, the words that are spoken are like golden seeds in our mind

We also need the conversations where we need to deal with disturbing stuff in our life

 

Feelings have to be dealt with

We have a range of feelings which we are supposed to taste upon, and thereafter deal with

It sure can be intense, if you let it

 

We need all dimensions in our life

Tasting them

Swallowing them

Or

Spitting them out

And

Embracing them

 

Then we can move on

The future started yesterday, I have definitely jumped on the train

 

Is it an express train

Seems to be

Yours don't need to be tho

August and September are usually our driest months, so I keep the backyard bird baths filled and as clean as possible at that time of year. They are used heavily. Not only do these birds drink their own bathwater, but they poop in it, too. There's just no setting them straight on these matters.

 

This Brown Thrasher has just hopped out of the water and is giving its feathers a good shake. The time I get to spend with my little visitors is especially vivid because I know they'll all be heading south in a matter of weeks, or even days.

 

It may resemble a thrush, but this thrasher is actually related to the catbirds and mockingbirds.

Thank you to all of you for your support these last few weeks. I have had so much kindness which has carried me through and helped to give me hope for the time ahead. Many friends of Tom's and of his family were at the funeral whose names I knew well but who I had never met. It was all very encouraging.
