[…] What a Way to Wake Up & Learn Something New I woke early and took my blood sugar: 111. I wandered into the kitchen and saw a grey lump on the floor. I turned on the lights and saw what I believe to be a Green Treefrog, native to Florida. From being in the kitchen […] What’s Up? On Wednesday morning, photography was again on the slow side. I’ve been working on wide, backlit silhouetted images of the vulture trees created from across the canal. The 400 f/2.8 is a perfect focal length for the shot. So far, I have some good but not great stuff. Today is Thursday 8 […] Very Dewy Lessons On a densely-foggy Monday morning past, the vegetation along the canal between the South Field and the South Peninsula was draped with many hundreds (no exaggeration) of dew covered spider webs. Tuesday morning dawned slightly foggy. I headed to the same spot expecting to see many hundreds of spider webs laced with […] What’s Up? It was mega-foggy at 7:15am on Monday morning so I did not head down to the lake until 7:45am. It turned out to be a superb morning for dew-covered spider webs and wildflowers. It ended in surprise when I discovered today’s very strange featured bird at the Vulture Trees. A short sunset foray […] What’s Down? I inadvertently forgot to hit publish after finishing this blog post on Saturday night! I am publishing it on Monday morning so that you can enjoy two posts today. Or whenever. Photo Mechanic Screen capture: 15 keepers from an 819-frame morning photo […] What’s Up? I made it down to the lake on Sunday morning, created 581 images, and kept 28 after the first edit. Those included one nice frame of a Great Egret in the marsh; the rest were Sandhill Cranes and vultures. As is usual, I had fun and learned a bunch. Which of today’s […] Today’s NANPA Tidbit of the Day NANPA Executive Director Susan Day wrote in a recent e-mail to me: The other document (sic) that you requested (a copy of the agreement between NANPA and ASMP signed by both parties) is confidential, so I obviously cannot share them. The message to NANPA Members here is very clear: […] What’s Up? I received this e-mail from Pat Fishburne yesterday. Dear Friends and Family: Shortly after Hurricane Ian destroyed our home, Stokes fell and broke his hip. He had hip surgery, but at 86, his health declined rapidly thereafter. He entered Hospice Care on Nov 7th and died this morning. His passing was very […] AM & PM. 1200 & 200-600. What Excites Me :) And a Teliing Quote from the NANPA Supposed Town MeetingResults of the NANPA Referendum calling for, in part, that the board put the question of joining with ASMP to a vote of the members NANPA Tidbit of the Day Most– probably well more than two of the 2 1/2-hour NANPA (Members-only) — supposed Town Hall session were spent extolling the virtues […] What’s Up? The NANPA Town Hall Meeting was much worse than I predicted. Details tomorrow. I did get down to the lake on Tuesday morning in ideal conditions without much to show for my efforts. Kudos to the US Men’s National Soccer Team on advancing to the Knock-Out round of the World Cup by defeating […] San Diego IPT #1 Late Registration Discount Please shoot me an e-mail if you would like to the San Diego IPT #1 Late Registration Discount.

I do not want to take sides until I have more detailed information. But it bothers me a great deal that: 1) as […] What’s Up? I spent an hour down by the lake on a foggy Sunday morning. And photographed only vultures. Today is Sunday 27 November 2022. As I have five tons of work to do, I may not have time to head down to the lake. This blog post took about 90 minutes to prepare […] NANPA Tidbit of the Day Yesterday, I sent this e-mail to the President and the Executive Director of NANPA: Dear Madams, I hope that you both enjoyed Thanksgiving Day with your families.
