While he was sleeping.

I mentioned earlier how tough it was to get photos of wildlife with a point and shoot camera. I managed to get close to this stork because it was sleeping. It flew away just after I took the photo.

Woody went to the pickleball court but the net was too high so he went to the pool.

Up close with the bird

Yesterday I said it was tough to get photos of birds with a point and shoot camera. The next day this bird let me get up close and position the bird in front of the bird house. Thanks little bird.

Drying his wings

It's tough to get close up photos of birds when all you have is a point and shoot camera. The crane and the cormorant share some high ground at one of the ponds on the gold course.

Boats on blue

I'm not sure I ever saw water this shade of blue but it sure looks pretty. But you don't want to go in the water because there are gators in this part of Florida.

Christmas decorations

Some people take their holiday decorating too serious.

Amazing

Tropical flowers use amazing colors to attract birds and insects.

This palm tree developed some serious defensive strategies for any animal that might think about climbing the tree trunk.

Illuminated

I don't know what type of flower this is but I was able to position myself so the flower was illuminated from behind for this illuminating photo..

Pinning Butterflies

A worker at the Florida Museum of Natural History pins butterflies. You should stop by the Butterfly Rainforst and check out all of the butterflies. If it's raining the butterflies will not be flying but it makes photography easier.

Leaves in the cemetery

Even the cemetery gets covered in leaves but the residents don't complain.

Leaves, leaves and more leaves

My next house isn't going to be near any trees! I have no trees in my backyard yet my deck and yard are covered in leaves. I collected 56 bags of leaves with the help of the cyclone rake and a lady in the neighborhood came and took all of the bags. She loaded 3 bags into the back of her hatchback and made as many trips as necessary until the leaves were all gone. She didn't stop at my neighbors house, just mine. I guess she likes the fact that my leaves are shredded before they are bagged. I hope she comes back again, I have more leaves in the yard so there will be another weekend spent bagging leaves.

Red, yellow and green

And today some red, yellow and green.

Red and green

Red leaves on green moss, almost as nice as yesterdays red and yellow leaves.

Red and yellow leaves

Don't these red and yellow leaves look well together? Like the keys on a piano the color of the leaves compliment and contrast each other.

Bug on yellow

Lost pretzel

Someone lost a pretzel down by the lake, it looks faded and washed clean of the salt. I wonder how much longer it lasted before it faded away to nothing.

Trapped

I found these leaves trapped between three rocks in the lake.

Down by the water

I was down by the water trying not to get wet or muddy and still get this photo. The wind was blowing which wasn't helping either.

Red and yellow

Another photo of red and yellow autumn colors.

Red or yellow

Is this a red leaf turning yellow or a yellow leaf turning red?

The narrow trail

Not very many people in the park today.

Tree bark

I was using a 50 MM macro lens on the photo walk the bark of the old tree caught my eye.

Did they read the sign?

The sign said no horses but then again the sign was on a different trail so these riders were not breaking any rules.

Red leaves of autumn

I finally took some time off from work and went on a photo walk. It was a beautiful day with the autumn colors in full bloom.

Paoli Massacre

On July 4th there was a recognition ceremony for the Paoli Massacre. Some men from the Sons of the American Revolution served as flag bearers at the ceremony.

Volunteer firefighter

They say fire companies are having trouble recruiting firefighters but it looks like this guy can't wait to join.

Converse high tops

I remember having a pair of Converse high tops as a kid. Funny how things fall out of fashion only to come back into fashion years later.

Red, White and Blue

There is a group of kids that ride their bicycles in the parade. Parents pull kids in wagons and some parents also ride bicycles. Everyone is dressed in their holiday red white and blues.

Philly attitude

A young girl waits for the Marple Newtown parade to start. She wore her hat backwards and slightly off center the entire time she was at the parade.

I was in the ocean off the coast of Maui, Hawaii with a waterproof GoPro camera when I took this photo. The person in the photo is using a stand up paddle surfboard.
