… down to the lake early morning and a launch into some pretty rough water with winds about double what had been forecast, but with wonderful photo opportunities all morning. I got the shot of the Horned Grebe cresting a wave before surfing the face of it … brought back memories of a day that Corky and I returned from the Isthmus at Catalina Island in heavy seas … climb the back and surf the face of the waves … a very long trip back to Newport Beach!
Below is a shot of a Great Egret that scored big time … three (count them) fish in his beak with one attempt. A great breakfast and he took them well ashore before consuming them lest one or more escape whilst he downed them.
Many more images to be worked up, but I felt I scored as well as the egret! Into the weekend for me and as always, the plan is to be back Monday morning. Have a joy filled weekend … keep breathing and smiling …. we are here!
Cheers,
Ted

some useful work in your
little corner of the world, and
have the steadfastness to labor.
For this is the way to the
happy life; with health and
endearing ties, it is the way to the
glorious life.
