Hooty-hoo
…is the noise birds make.
I rode home from school the other day (which includes a some mile stretch along a causeway designed to be a seabird habitat) and thought of you as I missed the first picture of mating Long Necked White Birds in flight (Snowy egrets, I believe) and thought ‘if only I’d taken the camera out of my bag and put it in my back pocket like I usually do’ . I didn’t stop to take action on the thought and moments later saw a big blue bird (great blue heron I presume) taking flight as I thought ‘if only I’d taken the camera out of my bag and put it in my back pocket after the last picture I missed’. This time I put the camera in the ready position and had a quite uneventful rest of the ride home.
The other day i thought I was going to be attacked by a dingo, but then it scampered off into suburban backyards to eat baby kittens. The second one’s from the train in the eastern bay and probably needs to be cropped. The last one is a where’s waldo type game.

Waldo with antlers?

At least three Waldos, methinks.
I dunno if the middle one needs cropping, but it sure is cool, whatever the subject.
And that’s a pretty big Dingote … !

I think it’s a good thing you didn’t have that camera in your back pocket, because then the whole trip would have been uneventful! What IS the subject of that middle picture?

I love the movement and color in the second. Very beautiful. Do NOT crop!

Those waldeer have picked a nice shady spot surrounded by (what is it?) blue lupines or penstemon?
