[Don]

Good morning all and welcome to the weekend. Today I will be taking my truck in for an oil change and general check up, in preparation for our upcoming trip to Ohio in a few weeks. We missed the last two years because of Covid but so far this trip is a "go". It is something called "The Biggest Week in American Birding" and is held every year right on the shore of Lake Erie, just east of Toledo. 2019 was the first year we had gone and we were looking forward to 2020 when the whole thing was cancelled.   We'll be gone a total of 17 days on this trip. We got our trailer back day before yesterday after having it in the shop for a roof repair, and I still need to get one of the LP tanks filled, grease the wheel bearings, and sanitize the water system. Plenty of time for that though.

I'll start with a nice splash of color with a Yellow Warbler, which we saw on our last trip to Ohio. Lots and lots of warblers!

Lovely little portrait, Don.

I too have a bit of spring color to brighten the day...

Good Saturday Morning All!
Quite a trip Don, have tons of fun and good luck shooting! A beautiful Warbler, and a nice pose!

Dave, not sure what that is but it sure has interest!


Heading out to the grocery store for my weekly re-stock. Will see how much everything went up this week!

Good morning.
Don, that's a great shot of a very yellow bird.
Dave, what a nice flowering shrub. Looks like a bunch of pom poms that cheerleaders use.
Rich, good luck at the store. Maybe they'll be a good sale today.
Here's a bunch of little ones (tomatoes) I recently replanted in pint pots and set in the greenhouse. They are
starting to respond to the warmer days.

Nice spring time colours,
This could go into Dave's What is it but I think it would be too easy.

Steve, looks like a good start on your tomato's!
Well, a three pack of Romaine lettuce went from $4.99 to $7.99. I opted out of that one.

Grant, looks like it could be a Packard tail light?

[Quint]

Rich, I also have a bunch of Romaine lettuce up and doing well along with some other loose leaf and butterhead types. Romaine does well early in the season and can be grown in containers.

Rich,
I am going to move it to Dave's What is it Thread. When I photographed it i was basically looking for Colour.
