It was a good day for fishing but this particular snowy egret was having trouble holding on to it's catch, saw it drop several.

I'm done with finals! As long as I passed everything, I have three more classes and one more semester until I'm done. Yay.
Going to see The Hobbit tomorrow, then this weekend I hope I can catch up on everyone's photos and sending out the messages I need to send.
On a Pullip-related note, I've decided to change Lea's name to Lee. I was pronouncing it Lee anyway and the "a" was driving me crazy. I also switched her from a Barbie Fashionista body to a LIV World body (Daniella, I think). The LIV body is actually a better color match since she has a spray-matted face and she's much sturdier now. She also, rather unexpectedly, got a new wig. :)
This is Catch Photo #80 for a new game of Photo Catch I'm playing with my Husband Darek (aka blankspace321) . We each take turns adding something to the photo until we've each added ten. Darek added his so now it's my turn. This is my last addition. Now Darek will add his 10th and then start Catch Photo #81. Where will we go in this picture?

As of August 29, 2019 we have been doing Catch Photos for ten (ten) years.
A sheep decides that the nearby houses grass is much greener than that of it's field and make a bid for freedom.
The Great escape comes to an end...
Even my partner got to handle some of the birds and he was supposed to be a spectator and on photography duty! This is Rosco a Great Horned Owl. His eyes were amazing, you couldn't help staring at them but this could have led to a confrontation. A great day at Icarus Falconry.

We happened to catch the Galápagos tortoises at an interesting moment, and fortunately the zoo had a volunteer docent standing by to answer the inevitable questions. The tortoises at the zoo are all at nearly a century old--I believe the volunteer docent said this specific tortoise had been living at the zoo since about 1933--but age doesn't seem to be a hindrance to a Galápagos tortoise's ability to mate. And the San Diego Zoo encourages this, because Galápagos tortoises are endangered, and the zoo likes to nurture baby tortoises that can later be reintroduced to the islands. Unfortunately, the tortoises in San Diego hadn't been interested in making any new tortoises for a while, so some time last year, the zoo people decided to split the males and the females up under the theory that absence makes the heart grow fonder. We happened to show up on the first day the tortoises were reintroduced to each other, and several of the males were trying to express their joy at the reunion. This is an awkward and, honestly, kind of funny process to watch, as the male has to climb up onto the back of the female's shell and kind of angle himself to point the right way, and then the female has to decide she's cool with it and "dilate her cloaca." (Wink wink nudge nudge say no more.) And then there's lots of grunting. Which is how it works for humans, too.
There are benefits to all this beyond just allowing zoo visitors to shoot tortoise porn. Back in the 1960s, tortoises on Española Island in the Galápagos had been hunted to the edge of extinction, so that there were only 12 females and 2 males left in the wild. Conservationists combed the world looking for an Española Island tortoise, and as luck would have it, one named Diego had been brought to San Diego in 1928. So Diego went back to Española Island and joined his two new buddies as one third of his subspecies' entire male population, and since then he's fathered hundreds of new Española Island tortoises. So the conservationist activities of the San Diego Zoo increased the genetic diversity of the Española Island tortoises by 50% and made the survival of the subspecies much more likely.

Angler catching a mullet (the white dot in the middle)
The pier along the dock is a good spot for fishing mullet which is quite tasty. (and, they are bigger than those catch from Docklands where is another good spot for mullet.)
