Welcome to day 173 of 365 photos…woke up this morning to an empty nest. We missed the youngsters leaving the nest so we don’t know if they left in the evening yesterday or early this morning. I cleaned the old nest out and hosed down the walls but will do a better job tomorrow. We… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 172 of 365 photos… I have been reading lately on how to add a pretty sunstar or starburst in landscape photography. Tonight, I gave it a try with my 18-300mm lens on the camera. I probably should have used the Tokina 12-28mm but I think this turned out pretty good. I wish… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 171 of 365 photos…how much seed can a red-headed woodpecker get in its beak. I watched this one latch onto the feeder today and start to load up its beak. It first got settled onto the bottom of the feeder and plowed its beak into the feeder. Sorry for photo quality –… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 170 of 365 photos…the bluebird babies are growing every day. If I figured right, they are about fourteen days old right now. They still look pretty small to me but they probably only have a few more days before they fledge. I’ve read that the babies can fledge anywhere from 16 to… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 169 of 365 photos…this corn was on the road to the airport today, where I went to pick up Mr. B. Back in Maine, we always say that corn should be “knee high by the 4th of July”. I think this qualifies. It is hard to tell by the photos but this… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 167 of 365 photos…the Great Race (used to be know as the Great American Race) made a stop in New Bern, North Carolina yesterday. Yep, these photos were taken yesterday and not today because by the time I arrived back home it was too late to go through all the photos that… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 166 of 365 photos…I dubbed this young eastern gray squirrel “the gatherer”. I had to chuckle when I saw him standing under the feeder on his hind legs with “arms” filled with bird seed. The look on his face looks like he is trying to figure out how he can get even… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 165 of 365 photos…this Laughing Gull was sitting on a post at the park and as he flew, I snapped a burst of photos. With not much time to bring the camera up, aim and snap, I rushed a bit. When I brought the photos into Lightroom, I thought that I would… Continue Reading

Welcome to day 164 of 365 photos…wild morning glories (Calystegia sepium) grow abundantly along the pathway where I walk.
