I did a bit of traveling in my last job before retiring and was able to see a lot of wonderful sights along the way.

What a great tree. I love trees that hang on despite what the weather throws at them. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Well, I had a pretty exciting day yesterday. I grabbed my camera and headed out to the backyard to see who was hanging around the feeder and noticed a woodpecker on one of the trees.

Turned out to be a Red-breasted Sapsucker and a new lifer.

You won’t regret it, though the learning curve can be a bit steep. Lots of good features. I recommend a couple extra batteries. 😬

Nice shot, Mike. What lens are you using to get these great shots at Tapir Valley?

I was lucky enough to spend a day wandering Rottnest Island some years back and loved every minute of it, especially the Quokka’s.

I do the same every once in a while and often find that I have learned better post processing techniques since then and can recover a shot that didn’t quite work before.

One of my more memorable sunset scenes photographed over the years.

We'd spent the afternoon cruising the Rio Tarcoles for #birds and other wildlife, and ended up at the Pacific Ocean just as these Great Egrets were wading into the surf in the best light. Not a bad way to end a day!

I hear today's #BirdOfTheDay is any bird whose main Color is 'White'. What about lots of white birds as in this squadron of American White Pelicans?
