    … we headed down to the lake this afternoon to compare the shooting and light to the early morning shooting we have been doing … it was good, warmer and some very fine lighting. Verdict? We’ll likely do it again!

    The shot above is an Osprey taking his second wingbeat coming off the top of a dead tree in one of the NE bays of Lake Pleasant. I especially like that he is looking directly at us.

    The shot below is a Greenhead Mallard taking off with a burst of energy and gaining altitude rapidly. They are very common, but oh so beautiful!

    “Kestrel in Love … A Raptor Experience” is now up on the Mary Fisher website and tickets are selling quickly. If you plan to attend this great event, I suggest you buy your tickets soon to make sure you can experience this phenomenal event … and pal with three American Kestrels and a Saker Falcon as well as learning more about these amazing falcons and raptors.

    Have a beautiful day … your choice! Always!

    Cheers,

    One morn I rose and looked upon the world.
    “Have I been blind until this hour?” I said.
    O’er every trembling leaf the sun had spread,
    And was like golden tapestry unfurled;
    And as the moments passed more light was hurled
    Upon the drinking earth athirst for light;
    And I beholding all this wondrous sight,
    Cried out aloud, “O God, I love Thy world!”
    And since that waking, often I drink deep
    The joy of dawn, and peace abides with me;
    And though I know that I again shall see
    Dark fear with withered hand approach my sleep,
    More sure am I when lonely night shall flee,
    At dawn the sun will bring good cheer to me.

    Does it Really Matter?

    Does it matter if life is illusory or real, if this a material world like most everyone thinks or a dream? It looks and feels real, it offers sensations and feelings that attest to its realness.
