Since ant swarms are starting, I'm going with an ant alate, the winged reproductive version.

Wow - you're doing great, SG! I have days when sidewalk hopping is challenging.

Happy birthday, but you're still a youngster!

Nice, Rich. You DO have a knack for finding cooperative birds perching outside of brushy vegetation!

Sounds as if Stone will have his four hands full!

Awww darn . . . . USPS is delivering my order a day early again today . . .

Cave diving, sky diving, swimming with sharks, sleeping on a portaledge - all on my Never Ever To Do list.

Worst I ever saw them was at Hutchinson Lake and south of Sprague Lake, but ticks are pretty much everywhere now. Birds and other critters have helped spread them.

Hmmmm . . . Now I know what motivated me to re-apply permethrin to my light-colored anti-tick shirts/pants/"armor" today.

Thanks, I did check, Boot; no new files. I was shooting my old Sony A9II. I checked both cards. I'm starting to wonder if I somehow inadvertantly deleted the DCIM folder as I opened it. I checked history but there were no files to restore. No biggy; I'll play catch-up over the next few days.

Craftsman tools were prized possessions that lasted back in the day. My fav mail order wish book was Herters. I still have a couple knives, some hooks, a tying vise & some reloading stuff (plus 1 old catalog). I wish I would have hung on to my LH Herters Sitka Magnum recurve bow; it was a beauty!

If it was a bit smaller, I say a Cicada burrow/hole. They generally make a very tidy hole with no dirt pile.

Pure treasure, Pat.

Wow! Sounds like a great trip, Rich! Great bird shots.
