(I got the macro itch from [https://www.flickr.com/photos/nrg_crisis] and [https://www.flickr.com/photos/alvinharp] earlier today that I just had to scratch :-)))) ; still no macro lens so extension tubes had to do; the photo was lit with a flashlight)
I've got that right, don't I?
A few have mentioned they never tire of fall foliage shots and I reckon we'll continue to test that theory for a while. The winds over the last few days have done their annual duty, yet the oaks endure as they tend to do, the last to give up the ghost...tho some only do so with the arrival of new buds in the spring, somehow hanging on throughout our trying winter.
Another very nice day for late October, so off we go to the canoe to enjoy a relatively rare windless day.
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.
Got in some flight shot practice on waterfowl and apparently was having a double vision epode when looking at the Canada Geese sitting on the pond ice. Also got a nice Wood Duck on the lawn. Terrace Heights Memorial Park, Yakima, Washington. IMG_0306
Yesterday I got up again at 5:30 am to catch the blue and golden hour at the house beach. This shot was taken when it was already around 7am and the sun was relatively high. The bay is closed off by cliffs here and I liked how the reflection of the sun made its way through the cliffs. I transformed the photo into a kind of black and orange graphic (instead of black and white).
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.
Got really lucky that the morning was so calm and the water was still, except for the occasional duck. On the left is the South Sister and on the right is Broken Top.
Located in the heart of Central Oregon just 25 miles west of Bend, Sparks Lake is a large, shallow lake. Situated near the northwest edge of Mount Bachelor, the lake boasts spectacular views of Broken Top and South Sister in addition to Mount Bachelor. Sparks Lake was formed by volcanic activity in the area over 10,000 years ago. Pristine alpine streams flow into this beautiful lake.
Sparks Lake is a natural body of water near the crest of the central Cascade Range in Deschutes County.

Baby’s gone all alone
Are you sad because you’re on your own?

Party down
There’s so many good ones still around.
What you are gonna do
What you are gonna feel? I don’t know.
What you are gonna feel

I guess there’s just one thing to say.
C’est la vie

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.
Special greetings to my English friends - do you still remember this one? Way back in the good old days in 1990; Germany won the championship, but England sang the better song ;-)
New Order - World in Motion (1990)
P.S.: I was always wondering why a football song talks about love - so I did some research. Here is what I found:
When the FA (English Football Association) heard "love's got the world in motion", they asked the band to replace "love's" with "we've". The band refused. "It's an anti-hooligan song", they said.
Looking at all the trouble everywhere around us these days, I'd wish there was more love among men.
Love's got the world in motion - without the world will stop turning.
Fire Flag Plume Moth (Sphenarches anisodactylus) family Pterophoridae
This one was leading me all around the garden today, finally pausing for a brief rest.
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!
Found this floating around in my archives on a shoot I had taken awhile ago at Point Reyes. Not a great shot, but thought it might put a smile on a few faces.
Have a wonderful week everyone! :-)
The yellow-rumped warbler loves those insects that come to life this time of the year, they are great fly catchers,

I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.
The world is like a book and those, who do not travel, only read the first page.
If you only visit 2 continents in your lifetime, visit Africa, twice.
