A duck with his catch

Some more images from Saturday’s photo shoot.  Oh, by the way, Happy Hump Day!

Jeanne and I really enjoy going to the Basin especially during migrating season as there are usually a lot of wildlife there.  Saturday was no exception.  Our friends the ducks were there and just like the last time we were there they put on their Keystone Cops routine with the fish.  One duck finds or catches a fish and then desperately tries to eat it before another duck or goose takes it away from him.

We watched this for 20 minutes and enjoyed every moment of it.

Tryingk to eat in peace

I continue to be frustrated with my lack of knowledge about electronics.  I have spent the last few evening searching the web for “how to” information about how to install a pan/tilt/rotate device on the Phantom.  I have “all the parts” (I think) but apparently the hobby shops assume you’re knowledgeable about how to hook everything up and the difference between a capacitor and resister.  I don’t know ohms from amps, from voltage.  I just want to plug wire A into socket B and have the damn thing work.  Is that too much to ask?  😦

Anyway I continue to struggle with putting the thing together and I sit here with all these neat looking parts and nowhere to put them.  Stay tuned.

A Goose Streaches

This guy looks like he is getting ready to conduct an orchestra.  This one is for you Betty.

I didn’t have time to work on the video last night.  Well I did but I was busy trying to find a “how to” instruction on the web.  They speak a language that I am unfamiliar with.

That’s it for today.  Enjoy your midweek hump day.  Thanks for stopping by the blog and be careful.
