… I haven’t seen one of these guys down at the ponds for a long time and most of my shots of them are around the lake between the tenth hole of Oak Creek Country Club and the clubhouse. This is a Black Crowned Night Heron and like most herons dines on fish and such around the shores of ponds and in wetlands. Beautiful creatures and I got the lighting perfect (maybe near perfect) on this shot. More about them at: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Black-crowned_Night-Heron/id
Not much headway on catching up with emails today … choices … I chose to spend three hours doing online course work this morning and early afternoon; then some legal work and finish two gem chrysacolla stones. One got her lap time, then more chores around the house. I will catch up … promise!
Have a beautiful day and rest of the week … back Monday morning.
Cheers
Ted
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.
