      Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

        Got a couple of closer up bird shots in last couple days (meaning didnt need a heavy crop).

        Unobstructed view, and shows all the distinctive marking of the CWW. So I thought the photo maybe a candidate for the local county park annual bird photo contest, but is no action in the shot and a CWW was the most recent winner.

        Blue Heron, but not too big of one.

        I watched him for about 15 minutes up close (like this shot), and he took flight to another place further away, and I watched him another 15 minutes. He struck into the water a couple times, and didnt get anything that I could see. Maybe why is kinda a small one.
        Yep, this shot purposely while stepping, so can see the leg/foot. Interesting how it slowly stepped, and slowly put down foot working it around in between the plants.
        I watched it all that time, for purpose of trying to get a shot of it taking flight, or in flight, or landing - - - and that is an entire other story, and nothing much to show for it, but some better than previous attempts.

              and good that we haven’t seen related scene like that reoccurring.

                    Thanks Bob. Last Friday while cleaning up I noticed that glass and ice are very similar photographywise in their ability to capture and reflect light. This pic isn’t remotely what I initially pictured in my mind, but I dig it. I need to find a non LED light source. There’s more fun to be had.

                        I didn't know Newton had so many Balls. He must have polished them regularly. Probably had a well made sack to carry them, with separate pockets, or some gooey stuff so they didn't clack when he walked.

                            While back threw out a donut in same area with squirrel latching on to it and posted pic in the donut day thread.

                            Yesterday it was some leftover French fries, is it the same squirrel?

                              Great to see so many great shots after a bit of a dry spell. Been on the road last couple of weeks and home in a week or so. Stay tuned.
