Weekender 1/2 Feb. 2025

Fun shots of beautifully colored creatures, MFI.

And good on you for aiding the birds in what I assume are hot and dry conditions.

My friend Sandy and I spent 3 hours walking around part of Huntington Beach's large Central Park yesterday morning. I took nearly 400 photos, deleted all but 65 during my initial triage, and probably less than half of them will be worth processing. I did get to add a new species to my list of birds photographed - the small and stocky Green Heron. Also managed to catch a White-faced Ibis successfully snagging a crayfish. Lots of white pelicans in the water and the morning light was ideal for avoiding blown-out whites. Several other birds including a Cooper's hawk and the lovely little Yellowthroat. And a number of floral shots that look promising. I'm eager to process some of these but that will have to wait:. I ordered the 2025 version of Photoshop Elements and received an email that was to include a link to download the installation files. But it was a dead link and the seller hasn't yet sent me a link that actually works.

My hours walking around the park plus several walks around my neighborhood added up to 12,024 steps (about 5.25 miles at my usual stride length) - a new personal best for me.

Don't blame me - I didn't vote for him!
