Ditch Tiger

Captured you on the camera you dirty, rotten predator of song birds.  Feral cat!

If I see you during daylight hours and I'm armed you'll need every one of your nine lives...

Final Touches

Jeff from Baylake Landscape, Inc. had a crew arrive early yesterday morning to put the final touches on the barn remodeling project - namely restore the front yard.

Everything was torn-up pretty good due to the wet ground, skid steer traffic and the concrete truck backing up to the building to conduct The Big Pour.   

The old foundation timbers were hauled away, rough grading performed , topsoil spread, finish grading and grass seeding.

All that's needed is a bit of rain to germinate the seed.

Another ho-hum peninsula sunset today. Bracketed about a half-dozen shots over several minutes.

Little Deer - New Location

The camera near the southwestern property line was moved a week ago into the tree plantation on a game trail.  These woodland shots have nice composition with the framing aspects of the trees, lighting and shadows.

I have to tweak it a bit but it's getting pictures for sure as the deer move thru...

Talking Turkey - Part Three

Here's some more.  We've a huge population of grasshoppers this year and I figure that may be part of the attraction for these hungry birds.  You are what you eat which is why I love dining on wild turkey.

This is The Boss Hen - yes they strut and display to exert dominance over the flock...
