    … usually you see herons and egrets standing on shore or in just a few inches of water as they patiently wait for prey to come into proximity wherein they are in the kill zone … once in a while you will see them on open water or further off shore if that is where the food for the day is. In the shot above we have a great blue heron that was in deeper water near shore and his tactics paid off ,,, he has a fish and some nutrients to get the day going. The light was magical too and illuminated him in a pool of translucent green water. Love it!

    The image below is of some hen common mergansers bolting from the end of a small bay on the north east side of Lake Pleasant. Mergansers are diving ducks and run along the water to help them gain speed to enter flight … if I do it right I can kinda trap them so that they have to fly at me to make it out of there … I did it right on this occasion. Desired shots normally are the ones where you have the birds flying directly at you or on a quartering angle towards you.

    Busy and good day and projects completed. I am getting way behind in answering emails again and will try to get partially caught up over the weekend … back Monday morning … have beautiful days and always seek out the beauty of life … it surrounds us, we just have to look for it!

    Cheers,

    Ted

    I caress the good tasting earth—lie upon it for hours,
    my body at full length. I converse with it; and the
    language is more articulate than the language of men.
    It is my mother, and the mother of my sisters and
    brothers, the grass and the trees, and all breathing and
    breathless living things—the great mother ever pregnant!

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
