Full disclosure: I had no idea this was James Randi when I took the photo. The man is an IDOL of mine. I was just taking street photos and these two looked dapper. My friend later texted me and was in shock! I’ve seen “An Honest Liar” a thousand times and I didn’t even know this was James in person. How embarrassing. Regardless, it’s a great street photo. I hope everyone enjoys it.
This old truck was a show-stopper for me. HTT!

I have lots of catching up to do. . .
A very dapper photo of my Grandfather James Wells. Here he is at the age of 20- I believe. He was born in Lincolnshire, England to an English father and an Anglo-Canadian mother. His mother said to Great-Grandfather, "We'll do well in Canada." So the three set sail for Canada and my grandfather was brought up on a prosperous farm on the outskirts of Toronto, Ontario. You see by his clothes that the family did quite well!
Pied-billed grebes are often seen floating or diving on Florida’s lakes and ponds. This small pigeon-sized grebe has a short, blunt bill, which is encircled by a black band. These grebes are rarely seen flying, they usually dive and swim underwater when threatened. They feed on small fish, crustaceans and aquatic insects.
Some pied-billed grebes are year-round residents in Florida, and have an extended breeding season. Others migrate to northern states to breed and return to Florida for the winter.
Folk names of this grebe include Dabchick, Devil-diver, Dive-dapper, Hell-diver, and Water Witch.
I found this one along Alligator Alley Trail at Circle B Bar Reserve. Polk County Florida.
For October , Dapper Death stopped by and said he would hang out till All Hallows Eve ! Happy for the house guest :D
