    After an appointment in Cottonwood this morning I stopped by Bubbling Ponds on the way home hoping to see new residents there and found a lot of new arrivals; Widgeons, Ring Necks, some new Mallards (they jump, full time residents continue to bask in the sun as you walk by). The new arrivals are still used to being shot at by anyone who happens along so they are getting up sometimes before you even get to the pond they are feeding and relaxing on … soon enough they will learn that cameras do not put out #4 shot and they are safe.

    Looking forward to getting the new camera body Thursday and due to the crop factor my 400mm will be an effective 640mm lens … I took this shot as a group of Widgeons came overhead after jumping before I got close to the pond they were on. They circled around and landed on another pond I had already walked. Few things are more beautiful than anything with wings and in flight. Even though our Lambada is very agile, it is incredibly clumsy compared to these beautiful creatures.

    I have been with Pandora since the beginning, but am beginning to enjoy performers on YouTube. Can listen to entire albums and watch the performance too. Currently watching and listening to Birdy and she is great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HW1-riumE40 .

    If you would like a 2015 calendar I still have about thirty of them. Price is $25.00 delivered and so far all the comments on it are very good. Send me an email with your address and how many you would like … and your phone number if you want to pay by credit card. This is One’s calendar and she is the cover girl again this year.

    Another fun day coming up and I’m starting to settle into a slightly more relaxed routine and liking it. Dinner at the Hilton at 6PM tonight … reservation is in my name and if you plan on joining us, I would appreciate a call so I can give the Hilton a table count. Anthony begins playing at 5:30 if you would care to get there early. Hope you can make it.

    Flying early in the morning so time to put a wrap on the day … it was a good one and hope yours was too. Another great one coming up methinks, and the plan is to start the day breathing … and finish it the same way … :+)

    Smile and share your joy

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
