although I saw hippos every day during the Kafue trip last November I did not get great shots. Some of the encounters in the rather shallow water of the Kafue River were so close that taking an image was not a priority ...
This image was taken in Kwazulu Natal, South Africa a few months earlier

Due to other priorities and commitments, I was only able to get this shot up now, although this was taken a few months ago in May.
MacRitchie Reservoir is a great place to to get away from the noisy parts of the city, for some peace and quiet. During blue hour, it is surprisngly not very crowded at all, so I was able to experiment as many shots as possible in different settings without too much difficulty.
Alas, I was not able to get a good sunset that day due to very cloudy weather, but the blue hour view more than made up for it.
A day late, but Happy Caturday! I don’t know what it is about boxes, but Josie and Sebastian like them a lot. You should have been here to watch Sebastian take 10 minutes (at least) to squeeze himself into this one. ;) *Beth’s photo.
Another quick day in Marathon, at Banana Bay. Time flies, keep your family close and your priorities straight. Jesus loves you!!!
Found some time, after taking down the Holiday Lights and Christmas Decorations, to scoot over to a local wildlife sanctuary; the trip paid off ;-)
Cooper’s Hawk:
Among the bird world’s most skillful fliers, Cooper’s Hawks are common woodland hawks that tear through cluttered tree canopies in high-speed pursuit of other birds.
Dashing through vegetation to catch birds is a dangerous lifestyle. In a study of more than 300 Cooper’s Hawk skeletons, 23 percent showed old, healed-over fractures in the bones of the chest, especially of the furcula, or wishbone.
A Cooper's Hawk captures a bird with its feet and kills it by repeated squeezing. Falcons tend to kill their prey by biting it, but Cooper’s Hawks hold their catch away from the body until it dies. They’ve even been known to drown their prey, holding a bird underwater until it stopped moving.
Once thought averse to towns and cities, Cooper’s Hawks are now fairly common urban and suburban birds. Some studies show their numbers are actually higher in towns than in their natural habitat, forests. Cities provide plenty of Rock Pigeon and Mourning Dove prey.

The CHCPTL got first dibs for working Midway on this morning and they are stretched out all the way down to the Commercial Lead at St. Anthony. The Portland Z is waiting back at Van Buren while the South Seattle Z is pulled up here at EBCS Midway anticipating a tailend setout. East Hump kept main 1 open for other moves, and following a CPKC train was TCW's St. Paul Turn.

… and getting my attention. She doesn't quite accept my work on the keyboard when she wants attention (snuggling on my shoulder while I type is only good for a brief time.) She is more than happy to block keyboard access and ability to see display both. Tikki also gets attention by opera arias, moving pictures hanging from walls and sinking claws delicately into my leg but let’s stick with this. Happy Caturday 5 June 2021 “Getting Attention.”
To draw the monkey's attention, I snap fingers, gesture, whistle...., but the distraction proves too great to ignore.

Waiters or waitresses know well to give priority to the people who have been waiting the longest. We also tend to give priorities to certain people who we consider more important in our life. Who gets to take priority in your life? Then he or she must be lucky ones to have the privilege💙💖 That's why I like Tanya's song, 'Priority' so much!
服務生很清楚哪位客人先來，哪位後到，一切有順序，少有人對這樣的優先權有異議... 你的心裡也有著份名單，只給特別的某個人這樣殊榮的優先權，這也不容旁人置喙的... 所以我一直喜歡蔡健雅爽朗豁達地唱著這首歌... 優先權

Three day lillies in the garden this morning! They bloom and fade in a flash, so ...work will just have to wait.
I was targeting the duck lady, who had just devoted herself extensively to plumage care, when the autofocus of my camera (faster than me) paid more attention to this pretty kingfisher...
What a smart camera ;-)))
The builder Pietro Francesco Carlone was commissioned by the Jesuits of Passau to build a new church.
The Jesuit College in Passau was completed in 1612. After the Thirty Years' War, the building of the church began. But in 1662 a city fire destroyed the Jesuit college and the building of the church came to a standstill. The structure of the college has priority. The Jesuits also quarrel with the Passau prince-bishop Wenzeslaus Graf von Thun. In 1664 the dispute was settled and the building of the church could continue. Construction was completed in 1676 and the consecration took place in 1677. The magnificent stucco is by Giovanni Battista Carlone. The interior decoration continues until 1720, so the six side altars date from 1678, the high altar, a work by Jakob Pawanger, is erected in 1712. The pulpit was made between 1715 and 1720. Ludwig Eisenbarth Orgelbau built the organ in 1973.

I'm finally able to get set up at a computer desk to see what I captured during the 2 airshow weekend. Sorry it took so long but medical issues take priority.
Metra 148 pushes an inbound commute past the UP PALG3, waiting to gain access to the Geneva Sub and head down to Rochelle.
Sony A7iii (aperture priority AF). Overall, my experimenting with AF has produced mixed results. For quick shots AF is helpful. However, when you have time to compose your shot, manual focusing is infinitely better. Anyway. I had a short talk with this lady. She was eager to leave the footpath and walk on the road in order to get to the bus stop. She finds walking very difficult, in particular managing the kerbs that frequently interrupt the footpath. Why do cars get the privilege of running on a smooth and uninterrupted surface whilst pedestrians have to climb up and down the kerbs? And off she went, on the tarmac braving the cars.

An Elderly Woman Was Standing At The Railing Of A Cruise Ship Gripping Her Hat Tightly So It Wouldn't Blow Away.
A Gentleman Approached Her And Said, "Pardon Me Madam...I Don't Mean To Seem Forward, But Did You Know Your Dress Is Blowing Up In this Strong Wind?"
She Replied, "Yes I Know But I Need Both Hands To Hold Onto This Hat."
The Man Fairly Shouted, "But Madam, You're Not Wearing Any Underwear And Your Privates Are Exposed!"
The Woman Looked Down Then Back Up At The Man And Said, "Sir, Anything You See Down There Is 75 Years Old.
I Just Bought This Hat Yesterday!"
I'm proud and honored that my work is showcased on the Public Blogger for his 7 days of Peace Campaign: thepublicblogger.com/
