… at least that is what I thought this Great Blue Heron was telling us when he came in and landing on a hazard buoy in Lake Pleasant, this afternoon. Shot time was 4:59P and sunset at 5:19P and we were still about fifteen minutes out from the ramp and dock … and the lighting was absolutely perfect. That is a seagull behind the heron. Not sure what the distance was on this shot, but we did get within 8’ of him. Also great shots of the Pelican, Western Grebe, and gulls.
Not sure what is going on with the Santa Fe, but after I got the trailer with the boat back in the garage, it died a rather ignoble and whimpering death … so, in the morning it will be towed in to the dealer and hoping that it is a covered repair. Ouch! At least it got us home and then collapsed.
Have a beautiful day, not sure about following the directions of critters, but it might be interesting … he was pointing to the ramp area :+)
Cheers and back Monday morning.
Ted
So each one to his wish, and as for me,
I sit tonight and wait
To find the answers to my soul in me,
And in the beauty of the sky and sea.
