Spotted this Green Heron doing some fishing from a dead tree today. It was fun shooting between the tree branches.

You have that right. You would never expect all that neck out of that bird if you had never seen it before.

Speaking of stretched neck here is another one from yesterday.

​That just does not look natural.

As I was watching TV I noticed the moon through a small opening in the clouds. I got off about 6 quick shots and it was gone again. I think I saw someone on a broom but I could not be sure.

I think the Yacht Club needs a new club house.

Bucket List has one less item on it. I took a biplane flight over the Hudson Valley last week. Only one way to describe it....FANTASTIC!!!!!

The plane was a New Standard D-25

Our pilot

My wife watching as we taxi out for takeoff. I think she is wondering if my Life insurance is paid up.

Awesome I'll have to put that on my bucket list, I love to fly but never rode in a biplane.

Here are a few shots from over the Hudson Valley.

Like most of you for the most part I am never in the shot. My wife used my Sony P&S to take these while I got on the plane.

Thanks guys. It was a great day for a ride. There was an Air Show later in the day and I took over 400 shots at it. Looks like it may take awhile to sort all of them. Keep an eye out for them.
