Really enjoyed the Lantern Walk last night at Oakwoods Metropark. The staff did a great job with the presentation. Several CODers there and it was a beautiful night. I would never walk alone through the woods in the dark but this was great having the path lite by lanterns and scary scenes here and there.....good time.
My camera class is finally starting with our first shoot on Monday night. We are doing the Toledo docks and will be able to shoot across the river to get the city skyline at night. Then, there is one of our favorite Mexican places to eat right there...yum! Will also do the Detroit Riverwalk at night and a cemetery shoot (just in time for Halloween) and hopefully the barn shoot (my favorite). New photos coming soon.

Let's Be Clear

I HATE SPARROWS!

These darn house sparrows are the bane of my bird watching life. I can't feed the birds in my backyard because of them...they will empty the feeder in a day. This spring they cost me over $500 because they were nesting behind my back gutters. It was a mess. Living in suburbia, I guess we have to put up with them and pigeons but I get so jealous when I hear my fellow birders talk about all the cool birds that they get in their yards. I have to go to a park or a friends to see just an ordinary Oriole.
