Happy Holidays

It's been rainy.  But on Christmas Day🎄,  we had a little blue sky.

A New Mirrorless Camera

 After many rainy days, the sky is clear and blue.

After many years, I wanted to try a mirrorless camera (very light weight and good for old folks).  The zoom is less than my old 300mm, but in reality it is better and focus easily.  😮😊🎀

"You can see me BETTER."😊🪽🪿🦆🦅

"Wow,  I can see you good, too, on a clear day."😁👍🎁🎄

Rainy and Dark Days

 Rainy and dark days.   It will be better soon. 🎄🎄🎄

More backyard friends are here.  (The road to the wetlands nearby is flooded right now.🥲)

"My friends and I come here more often. "😉

"I come here by myself."😊

"I am a daily visitor now."👍

More Waterfowl

 On a sunny day at the wetlands.  (In winter, it is rainy most of the time in western Oregon.)

"Are we Cackling geese or Canada Geese?"😉

"We are Northern Pintails."🦆

"I have been staying here for a while.   I am a male Hooded Merganser."😍
