    … a Snowy Egret, that is … there are two types of creatures that are incredibly difficult to shoot well and they are those which are predominately black, and those that are predominately white … so, my little house predator, One and egrets top my list in these categories.

    I got this shot on the last day of April along the shady side of a little bay in Lake Pleasant whilst he was busy hunting for small bait fish and crustaceans along the shore. he did quite well and after a few minutes we left him to his hunting, rather than spook him into flight. It takes a lot of energy for these creatures to fly and I seldom jump the same birds twice … at least I try not too.

    I just learned that a friend of mine is not only photographing beautiful things, but is growing and selling them too. Jordon is importing, growing and selling exotic water lilies. You can look at them and contact him through his website at: https://www.aquaticoasislilies.com/shop.

    Another beautiful week underway … the plan is to live it and enjoy what life brings my way … to keep breathing and to smile. It truly is a blessing to be alive!

    Cheers,

    Will future generations understand
    The turmoil of these days, the strain and stress,
    The dawn’s despair, the night’s uneasiness,
    The greed of itching palms throughout the land?
    Will they conceive the fires fanatics fanned,
    Of time the universal wastefulness,
    The strange philosophies the mobs confess
    That every throat cry out some new demand?
     
    Time was when men held saner counsel here.
    Will that time come again? Shall we behold
    From this grim madness some new love unfold?
    We pray for gentler times, when men shall cease
    His brother man to bully or to fear.
    Great God, among ourselves let us have peace!

    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→
