Good day for bird pics, bad day for ants
So since it wasn’t raining today, I thought I’d go take some birds pics. Long story short- I spent the afternoon in the ER.
While I was shooting this Red-shouldered Hawk I was bitten by some ants. 10 minutes later I was swelling up and had hives. I went to ER, they took me right away. My eyes, ears and mouth was swollen.
Damn ants. Anyway, they took care of me and I’m OK now.

Guess WHO came to visit…
We had a visitor the other day.
At first I didn’t see him/her. Blended so well into the tree. But then, I saw the eyes. The bright yellow eyes staring back at me. It was a Great Horned Owl.
It sat there for a few minutes. Just long enough for me to grab my camera and take a few pics. Then it flew off. I hope it comes back to visit again.
