Happy Hump Day May 2, 2012

Great Egret On The Move

Five more days until the release of Photoshop CS6.  I can’t wait as I am tired of jumping back and forth between the Beta and version CS5.  Some of my favorite plug-ins do not play well with the Beta version so I’ll be glad to get rid of it.

I have so many images of the Great Egrets at the Duck Pond that I had to show you at least one more.  Funny thing is as I was processing a different image this morning and I really liked the color but as I moved around the image I discovered that I had caught him at an embarrassing moment shall we say.  Remember you can click on the image to see a larger version of it.  500 pixels is all WordPress allows on the main page.

So since this is a family oriented blog I scrapped that image and this is the one you get this day. 🙂

Brewers Black Bird

I am woefully ignorant about my bird recognition and identification.  I realize that.  I just like to take pictures and I guess I’ll leave the identification part to those who care.  I believe this is Brewers Black Bird.  Let me know if I’m wrong but that’s what I’m going with for now.

I apologize for the annoying cable running through the image.  This line runs just behind the viewing stand at the Duck Pond.  I had the tripod set up and was shooting the Great Egrets.  This guy was protesting a bit so I finally turned around and took his image.

He has some food in his mouth so he must not have been the one making all the clatter.  Okay I did stick the moon in.  It was out of the frame so I moved it a little closer than it really was.

Common Sparrow?

I’m going to guess this is a common Sparrow.  I make the same apology for the cable and I didn’t think I could sell the moon shot again so I left it out.  🙂  Anyway it was a fun 45 minutes at the Duck Pond.  I only have 375 more images of the 4 Great Egrets.  What to do with them?  Ugh, I hate deleting my images.

That’s it for today.  Hope you have wonderful Hump Day and thanks for stopping by.  Be careful.
