Wanderings – 20161113

So I was driving my regular spots. Saw the Gulls nature’s gymnast/ballet dancers of water fowl. And the geese’s Flying Fortress… it was a lovely day.

The Moon – 20161111

No it’s not the Supermoon, but it was still amazing through the wisps of clouds …

Fall: Gathering of Crows – 20161105

It was a fine Fall’s day at the pond. Not too cold.  Leaves are turning. The crows were congregating on the little sandbar taking a dip then flying away. 

20161030 – Crouching Heron, Hidden Heron

Well … it got dark and the original pics were a bit dark. So I adjusted.  I hadn’t ever seen a heron crouch before, but the reason was another heron was attempting to come in. Not a good idea for the incoming one. No heron was hurt … the crouching one chased the other off. 

20161023 – Awakening from an Afternoon Nap 

So Sunday was an easy cool day. I went to the pond and saw some mallard ducks awakening from a nap. 

20161016 – Three Crows and the Heron 

So as I drived about I was at my favorite place the Pond.  The heron was there and also three noisy crows … The heron apparently was more than the crows could bear.

The Pond Near Nightfall – 20160903

This is the hour when the geese come in … Many flocks start landing. 

And they start separating to their respective places. 

By the side of the road … 20160828

So it was a hot day but I was driving around my usual places. And the geese took off… There was a bit of blur so I did some special effects not bad.

Allen Pond – 20160821

So… I was at Allen Pond and got soaked. It was a grey day and decided for black and white. The geese are gathering and I suppose getting ready. But one lone goose stay not far from my bench through the downpour. I think the goose questioned my sanity. 

20160723 – Wandering around my neighborhood


It was a hot summers day and many birds were taking advantage the water around the wading ponds large and small. The egret spent some time preening and the turtle remained motionless.
