Eagle 0

Taken by my brother under low light conditions, but it’s such a great action shot I decided it warranted posting.

It looks like the fishing expedition was successful.

Yesterday, I happened to be on the 14th floor of an office building in downtown Norfolk. While I was waiting for my appointment, I enjoyed the view.

Duck! Great Crested Cormorant 6

It was strolling down the street with a nonchalant dignity. As I paused at the “Yield” sign, it gave me a “What are you doing here” look.

Update:

I have received a proper identification. Thanks to the person responsible.

I think it was a female mallard, as mallards are the most common in these parts, but I’m not sure. I spent a while trying to identify it at this site, but, since most of the birds were pictured in the water, it didn’t help much.

New Year’s Cat Blogging 0

Smart cat. Prefers Linux. Knows it takes less effort.

Afterthought:

Less effort is what he does.

Overland 2

I have seen him tooling around the neighborhood.

Last weekend, while on a walk, I saw him decorating it for Christmas. I stopped to chat with him and he graciously gave me permission to post the pictures on my blog (that’s not him in the driver’s seat–that’s me).

His pride and joy, a 1949 Willys Overland.
