"I'm an old fashioned guy... I want to be an old man with a beer belly sitting on a porch, looking at a lake or something" ~ Johnny Depp
it's funny, I used to get excited to find spotted towhees. Now that I've learned their calls and habitats, I see them all the time. The thing that makes the shot special is getting them when they're not buried in undergrowth or bushes. This shot was at Commonwealth Lake.
A male common, or ring-necked pheasant (Phasianus colchicus, Phasianidae) sits on a tree stump in pleasant lighting.
The ring-necked pheasant is a Eurasian bird that was introduced as a game bird in North America where it is widespread in the U.S. and parts of southern Canada. Although the bird reproduces in the wild, released captive bred birds are required to maintain adequate populations especially for hunting. I viewed this bird a few days after a release. I'd assume that the bird was part of the release given its lack of concern for my presence.

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES
ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK
Ontdekte dat het oude nest was verdwenen,
maar bij toeval toen ik de pinksterbloem aan het fotograferen was dat de zwaan een nieuw plek en nest heeft tussen het riet,
Ik ga het aankomend weekend zeker kijken of er al van die lieve kleine zwaantjes zwemmen :-)

The paparazzi oohed and awed, while their shutters hammered away, grabbing every angle of this male Hooded warbler.
PLEASE: Do not post any comment graphics, they will be deleted. See info in my bio.
Taken on my trip. Glad to be back home and back into Flickr.
Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead!
Thank you for your support and visit!
The beautiful red eyed frog is always on the photographers want list. On our recent trip to the OSA Peninsula we had the opportunity to see him again and take a few more images. We also got to see a baby red eyed frog which I will post at a later date. Our experience In the Osa Peninsula was outstanding and certainly a photographers dream.

Wishing you all an amazing day and a very blessed one too !!!!!!!!!
The wonderful live oaks, hanging moss, and bromides make such a great setting for this beautiful barred owl ! If I could chose background I could not do nearly as well , not even close, as does his natural surroundings. Breathtaking to see and photograph !
Wishing you all a great day and a very blessed one too !!

Almost every day, I walk to a pond not too far from here, where there's always a lot of water fowl activity.
There are these 4 ducks, three whites (one tufted) and a black. They are always together, and they always come up, out of the water and over to me when they see me. I'm sure they're hoping I'll feed them, but I don't.
But I talk to them. I tell them they should never eat bread, it's bad for them. And I take their photos.
Yesterday, this fellow came by with a bag of seed and was trying to feed the geese who didn't seem interested and swam away.
I pointed to these 4 who were swimming farther out and told him if you toss it, they will come.
And they did.
They were so cute, not aggressive, but standing at his feet like little dogs looking imploringly up at him.
I had the zoom lens on the camera and no time to change, so couldn't get a clear photo. I tried backing away, but the ducks just followed me. We sometimes walk together......I think we may be friends by now, or more likely they continue to hope I'll feed them.
This isn't very clear, and I obviously edited it.
It's the formal studio portrait. ;-)
