I waited all afternoon for this guy to show up, so of course the only sighting is as I am driving out of the park. Luckily no one was behind me, and I squeezed off a few shots from the car as he flew away from me.
During the Civil War, the town was near the scene of battles and skirmishes during which the churches and schools were used as hospitals, frequently occupied by Federal troops, Warrenton was the object of raids by Colonel John S. Mosby, known as the "Gray Ghost," who later made his home there and practiced law in the California Building across Court Street. A monument to Mosby stands beside the Old Courthouse. He is buried in the Warrenton cemetery.
Abstract expressionism? Naw, it's just Fred Radtke at work, or so I assume. The Gray Ghost strikes again -- only that second layer isn't gray? He must have gotten a deal on some pink paint.
I'm not sure whether this is a Banksy piece that was covered up by the Gray Ghost (a vigilante graffiti remover) or something else entirely, but that's the closest I can come up with. It's on the side of a building right across the street from The Big Top on Clio St.
New Orleans, LA
I loved this old rusty gate and it was just an awesome accessory for the pics of the girls

The obelisk is next to the Fauquier County Courthouse.
This male Northern Harrier was flying around a property I was watching, and he almost gave me a couple of good pix. But I have had not had much luck photographing the Gray Ghost, so I'm keeping them. Also, with this photo, the house is nice.
My wife's family was visiting from out of state. We decided to visit Southport, NC on Saturday. Photo taken from the shore of the Cape Fear River in Southport. Near the end of our visit, a Brunswick County Sheriff boat accompanied a tow boat towing a sailboat.
This male northern harrier (gray ghost) kept me company the whole afternoon while I watched the trains go by at Bay Point park. He would appear about every half hour to fly slowly up the abandoned railroad tracks looking for something to eat. His mate was on the other side of the tracks doing the same.
Stopped at Washington Court House on the way back from the OOS outing at The Wilds in Cumberland, OH. No Snowy Owl but I did have this harrier flying behind the Home Depot. No owl sightings today from reports of those that were there as of 3:30 PM.
