This Merganser was in a hurry, hood down, racing somewhere..... When the hood isn't raised, it's easier to recognize that Mergansers are actually ducks.

About a mile from where I live. Sadly they have chopped down a good chink of this woodland in the last couple of weeks. Not sure why.

That's a shame, as the woods looks really lovely and peaceful. I hope that they're not clearing the land in order for some builder to come in and put up a bunch of houses!

No it won't be that. But might be to do with diseased trees or something. Mrs AFB sent them an email asking why.

This tiny mushroom was about a centimetre across.

Nope. Definitely Frost. See the Poetry thread and read the last stanza.

Our sunsets out here in the central valley can be quite beautiful.

Another trip to Lowe’s now that the truck is fixed.

Yesterday afternoon the Hooded Mergansers were sure frisky, chasing each other around and having a great time!

On the way back from the grocery shop the sun came out for a few brief seconds.

I got to playing with a glass sphere yesterday. I started by holding the sphere and photographing the view inside. By the time I had finished I was holding the sphere against the phone’s camera lens, which acted like a macro lens. Some interesting shots.

What fun, Alli!!!! I have a couple of those: a large one and a smaller one, but I tend to forget to get them out and play with them! Isn't it neat how they reflect things? Sort of an oversized raindrop!
