These may be ducks, I suspect they are. We went to the Ace Basin today. I was up at the crack of dawn, but we did not leave terribly early: around 9 I guess. We took the dogs.

But that wasn't the problem, the birds just weren't there for us! And the later it got the fewer the birds were. The place I wanted to go was closed except for hunters. I walked by a marsh towards the area. Someone in charge came to tell me that I couldn't do that, people were shooting with guns.

I thought, so........... Maybe they will scare the birds to me. (Thinking about it I don't know what they were hunting, could have been deer for all I know.).
So, we can't go in that area until February.

We had fun, except for my frustration. I was excited to get to that area. I didn't even see that many regular hawks.

ginger :cry (I wanted to post something, so I worked up this one. I did get egrets, a snowy........samo, samo.) Will work them up......later. And, I got a cute photo of my dogs looking out the car window.) And some people fishing.
And a few more dogs. And my husband dancing with a dog. Saw another version of the edge of the world. That was very peaceful. Way out down a dirt road, long dirt road. We were the only ones there. One picnic table, trees, a boat landing and water. Much water! While I tried to get a few more photos of water, Bill and the dogs ate my lunch. Very peaceful there.
After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    Not only did the dogs join Bill for my lunch, Bill fed it to them. And I photographed it. I thought it was cute until I found out that was our entire food supply.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
