First nice view of the day, a muskrat. I'd been thinking
a nice mink video shoot would have made for a lovely test drive, and
it took me a while to decide this was in fact a muskrat, but
pleasant nonetheless.
While watching the muskrat swim around - a real surprise, A Virginia Rail!
[A "Rail" I mean...not "Sora"...Thanks Mary, my brain's getting fuzzier]
Not too shabby for a snowy day in December.
Not tree shadows, but the beginnings of cracks in the ice being formed
[maybe] where the temperature was a little warmer?
I came across a group five meadowlarks. They looked so strange to me...
I guess the bright yellow against the snowy sky and the
cold-induced fluffiness.
Rail still plodding along on the way out. This spot is sometimes
such a bummer for photos, but so often yields lovely finds!
The Video Test Drives:
(not so much the best weather for video...and did I mention I haven't read the
book yet?) ALSO I'm really glad I didn't purchase the camcorder for nature walks....
juggling yet another device along with all the other cameras felt just plain nutty!
