Had to get out, rain be damned. Ended up at Fort Wetherill’s old bunker complex, where the graffiti ‘artists’ compete for wall space. This place has some serious post-apocalyptic vibes.
With this scenic pond just down the road now, it’s easy pickings for some good photo opportunities. From left to right: a Black-capped Chickadee borrows an old woodpecker’s nest, a dog and his boy try their luck at the bridge that divides the pond, and a lily pad flower almost ready to bloom.
Had to sneak out tonight for a quick shot. It falls well short of being a favorite, but I’ll take what I can get; it’s going to be that kind of a week weather wise.
Our favorite little spring-time bird – the yellow warbler, singing away at Trustom Pond in South Kingstown, RI. I took several photos of this bird, but this capture was finally free of branches and twigs going across his face, etc. A nice, clean shot of him belting out a tune.
Will this really work? The answer was yes. Within three hours of hanging this ‘contraption’ we had our first Baltimore Oriole. Sometimes I think these birds eat better than we do.
