I think I've mined my archives as much as I can for this pass through. There is a local park, Heather Farm, that has a manmade duck pond. It's always full of ducks, Canadian geese, white geese, seagulls, and other birds. It's a big pond and since it's been there 40-50 years it has also become a way stop for passing migratory birds. Sometimes you can see something unusual.
When I can't figure out what else to shoot and need to get the photography juices flowing, I go to Heather Farm. Though usually I just end up with ducks swimming shots that look like ducks swimming shots. The fairly permanent resident birds have become rather blase about all the people coming and gawking. Last time I was there, this past summer, this mother and children didn't notice that about three birds walk right behind them, up closer and more personal than the ones they were looking at. The fence is only around a part of one side of the pond, and at one point the birds were closer to them. I wasn't quick enough to catch them all, but I caught one. I found it slightly amusing. http://members.aol.com/eactivist/PAWS/pages/hey.htm Just for fun. That's it for now.
