Rare pierces Posted November 11, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Pictures taken between Monday, November 11 and Sunday, November 17. Rules: See above That's it. This isn't a contest. All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising). Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize. The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays. Post one. Post many. Up to you. Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Docker123 Posted November 16, 2019 #7 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Well, I should be packing for my next cruise, but went looking for birds instead. What did I find off our point, a sailing race. first photo has yachts and a gannet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackiedawg Posted November 18, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Well my local wetlands, Green Cay, is closed as of today, for as long as 4 months as they replace the nature center roof and the 2 miles of boardwalk over the wetlands. This is one of my two regular weekend spots, and especially during winter season - so this weekend I got in my last shots from this place for the rest of this year, and probably until Spring 2020. At least lots of bird diversity was out on a cool day (for Florida), temps staying around 72 degrees for a high. It was a good send-off for the park: Least bittern male, on the hunt: Adorable little round ball of a bird - a common yellowthroat: Zoomed in really close, you can spot this bird - from 10 feet away with the naked eye, you could walk right past and never notice. Excellent camouflage make this a bird often heard, but rarely spotted...an eastern whip-poor-will: One of our most showy birds, the roseate spoonbill, stretching his wings: A tricolor heron, sitting quietly in late day sun, with his reflection to keep him company: A white ibis coming in to land: A tricolor heron turning in the air as he passes by: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pierces Posted November 18, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Every time you choose between two or more of anything, there are winners and losers. In a race or sporting event, the winner and loser is chosen based on the fastest time or highest/lowest score. Chance, in the form of a coin toss can be used. The winner may also be determined by critical judgement. This week’s picture is of the winner based on the latter type. My choices were to spend the weekend traipsing around the Southland taking pictures or wielding tools to renovate our entertainment gazebo to make room for visiting family to actually sit down and eat. Both my conscience and Wonderful Wife were in favor of the renovation. Condolences to photography. Winners and Losers Dave 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
