Supposed to be Sunny tomorrow! Foggy and rainy days kill the colors in my world. I sure do need to get out of this house!

Thank you. So beautiful!
Thank you. So beautiful!
And THEN the global warming?
Love the Blue Heron. We don’t see them here during the winter but I have one that perches on an old dock post in front of the house on most summer mornings.
I ordered the Canon yesterday BTW.
Nice! How do those things taste?
When it happens to me I check FR for nature photographs. There was this guy named Swampsniper who used to post them until the egrets ate him. BTT.
Fog and rain do not kill the colors in your world. They merely enhance the colors in your world toward a different direction.
Gorgeous! I got some nice bird photos in Maui earlier this week.
Awesome Tsiya, as usual!
That sounds just right. If it's too hot for a football game in Tampa and the sun's rays pour down into that cement bowl, people start passing out.
I've seen this with mine own baby blues.
Go Bears....oops, sorry, I guess I'm a little out of sync from the freezing weather we've been having here.
Freeze warning tonight in the county north of mine (Pasco County).
I'm so tired of lugging the outside potted plants in and out so much the past couple weeks.

Where I live it's cold, then colder, then some more cold. Then snow, then freezing rain, then some more cold.
They are promising it will get above 25 tomorrow. I'll believe it when I see it.

Thanks for the beautiful pictures!
29f is predicted for Saturday in St. Augustine, I’m about 10 miles inland, it may get colder here.
Where you don’t want to be, here in Chicagoland. 8 degrees tonite. Ugh. I needed those pictures, Swamp. Picked up my spirits. I love birdwatching. Live near a great Arboretum (Morton’s) in Lisle, IL (one town over from where I live in Downers Grove). Winter in the Arboretum is great for birdwatching, as the boughs of the trees are bare so it’s easier to spot them. On the other hand, there are less of them to spot than in summer. However, the Arboretum is beautiful in the winter when it wears its winter coat. The bottom line though, is I’m sick of winter. I want spring, now!
What a shame, cabin fever in Florida. Does it last for more than three days?
Hey, no one makes you live on a glacier!
I was falsely sold on Global Warming!
“...who used to post them until the egrets ate him.....”
LOL!
Strange....I was just wondering yesterday when you last posted pictures so I looked you up. These look more like the best of paintings, especially the first one with the shimmering light on the water, the intense deep colors, and the 3D effect of the bird standing out against the muted background.
Thanks!
Beautiful shots! GBH are the coolest of birds.
