This egret landed near me, and soon caught a fish. I was fortunate to get the whole scene captured. This was the successful removal of the fish from the lake.
A Tricolored Heron Lurching into the Marsh to catch a little minnow. Within a split second he demonstrated his agility by leaping from a log wirh head under water, then this shot coming up with the minnow, to flying with it.

We got off the ship while it was still in the ocean, went down the gangplank to a catamaran, and took an excursion into Tracy Arm. What an incredible place of beauty! This is Sawyer Glacier, and I was amazed to capture it calfing. It makes quite a noise when the glacier breaks apart and falls to the ocean. If you zoom in, you'll see that those tiny black spots are birds, so you can get a sense of scale here. I was in awe of the blues everywhere, in the ice and in the water.
It was about 7C out, and with the wind chill, probably right at the freezing point.
Male American Kestrel flying off to a tree with a nice Vole catch at Lake Galena. Peace Valley Park, New Britain PA. Right place and time,but on the wrong side of the sun.
I finally got my flight shot of the White Ibis. It took two years of going back to the Ocean City rookery. Two years ago there was one and you were lucky to see it. I got a shot of it on the ground. Went back yesterday and there were 20 of them flying in and out.
Got some wild results from reflecting my LED lights in an old CD. I know I say this nearly every week, but I took loads of these and a couple of others for the theme, so difficult to choose the final post!
HMM!
Unusual Patterns
Last week we got about 60cm of snow and today we got about 10-15cm of ice and sleet (which is like ten times worse than 1 meter of snow). So New England winter is in full swing and I am looking forward for summer 2022 and the day I am going to fly to Greece. Until that day though, I can think about that by looking at photos from last summer. This is the Bouza lighthouse in Aegina, one of my favorite places on the island. Errected in 1881, it's only 9meters tall but still one of the island's most famous landmarks. It sits at the island's westernost spot right next to the church of Saint Apostles. A beautiful place to relax and enjoy the sunset as the ferries pass by. It feels like the lighthouse is providing a shining path to them.
PS: I know I haven't been around much commenting and (most importantly) replying to comments on my photos, but at some point I will find the time to show my appreciation to your comments and faves!

The Black Skimmer is one of my favorite birds down at the shore. I just love watching them skim along the water catching fish. Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge in Galloway, NJ.
Got fed up with badly made. ill fitting jeans from Bangladesh. So, splashed out on these. I didn't know the brand, but heck, how comfortable.I feel like I'm in Texas.
The Cliff Swallows here are really tough to get. They fly so low and fast over the dam and disappear, then pop up to go back to the nest. Bucks County PA.
Caught me shooting him in the branches. Wildwood Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Thanks so much for looking!
I don't really know what it captured. It was very animated with leaps and fluttering while pecking at the grass. I know they eat snails, lizards, frog, snakes in addition to corn and etc. Could be something meaty and tasty in that root ball.
Not even sure that IS a root ball because the distance was too far and photo too cropped for a good fix on what the crane dug up. If any of my friends here know, please share.
The yellow-rumped warbler loves those insects that come to life this time of the year, they are great fly catchers,
Just got back from a visit with my daughter and her family Always a great time and wonderful to catch up with the Grands! Hope you are having a lovely week! I will continue to catch up with your beautiful images!
