Here is an owl from Viera Wetlands.

Tell the truth Harry, those pipes really are that color aren't they. :wink

    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!"

    I think that they are trying to keep the little birdies from dirtying their pipes. :D

    Me thinks that it is pointing in the direction the crap flows since it's a waste water treatment facility. :D

    I think that it's the pinkish-purplish (whatever) color of the pipes that scares you away from that shot.

    Nobody in the right mind would paint something that color. They must have had some different color paints left over from previous projects and dumped them all together to paint those pipes. :):

    Lisa, thankfully there is no smell out there. ...and I don't want to give Harry's backyard, the Viera Wetlands, a bad name or smell. It's a great place to shoot. Just wanted to have fun with Harry.
