Friday Night Photos Holiday Feast Edition

Happy Friday and welcome back everyone. The last week without C99 was like a week without sunshine. It's good to have the sun back. Post any photos, memes, or music you like.

While most of us were all busy stuffing ourselves with turkey and all the trimmings yesterday these Cedar Waxwings were giving thanks and stuffing themselves on Toyon bush berries.

Friday Night Photos The Lakes Edition

Happy Friday everyone. Post whatever photos, memes or music your little heart desires.

Since I do a lot of my bird photography at Santee Lakes Recreation Preserve and it's only a 15 minute walk from my house I thought a tour would be nice. The preserve has seven small lakes they stock with fish, campgrounds for campers, rental cabins on the water, playgrounds for the kids and two pavilions for live music on holiday weekends.

Friday Night Photos 2 birds Edition

Happy Friday everyone. Post any photos, memes, or music you like.

I went to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park on Wednesday to photograph the large critters. Turns out the best shots of the day were of the smallest critter there.

Fun Fact: Hummingbirds do not walk.

Friday Night Photos Fall Colors Edition

Happy Friday everyone. Post any photos memes or music you like.

Last weekend I was in Utah visiting family (thank you, Janis for hosting while I was away). The trees were in their fall colors, something we don't get here in San Diego. While there I meet up with Snoopy and Sam. We had a nice conversation over lunch at Shooting Star Saloon. Afterwards we took Sam To Pineview Reservoir to play in the water. All in all a fun day and a fun trip.

Next Friday I will be on the road headed to Utah and wont be able to host FNP. If someone will be good enough to host in my absence it would be greatly appreciated.

Here's some of the birds that reside at Santee Lakes.

Friday Night Photos Snowy Edition

Happy Friday everyone. Post any photos, memes, or music you like.

I was planning on posting photos from this months camera club light painting photo shoot on Tuesday. Unfortunately my ticker had other ideas and I spent Tuesday and Wednesday in the hospital with an irregular heartbeat. Thankfully the problem is not serious or life threatening and is under control with the help of meds and I'm now back to my usual abnormal self. Hope everyone else is feeling well and healthy.

Since I missed out on the light painting I went to Santee Lakes yesterday morning and got some shots of a Snowy Egret catching breakfast. It was so overjoyed with it's catch it started doing the happy dance.

Friday Night Photos Rainy Day Edition

Happy Friday everyone. Please post any photos, memes, or music you like.

When I was young my dad would often say save a little for a rainy day. So following my dads advice I saved photos taken months ago for a time I would need them for FNP. Funny thing is I expected that rainy day would come during the winter and not in the middle of summer. Not that I'm complaining mind you. We need all the rain we can get and it's a nice break from the excessive heat we've had for the last week.
