Project 365, 2022, Weeks 36, 37, 38
Somehow these postings for my Project 365 seem to have gotten away from me and I am so far behind. But, I decided to post a few each week until I’m caught up with shooting. Full disclosure - I did not finish this project. I began traveling and other things filled in the time that I would have been working on this. So, again, I’m clustering a few together in order to get caught up since I’m months behind in sharing.
White Faced Ibis | Local Waterfowl
With the changing seasons, birds are migrating through the Pacific Flyway here in Northern California. There are some waterfowl who hang around all year and feed in the flooded rice fields. Once such species is the white faced ibis.
Autumn Waterfalls Workshop | Shame on Me!!!
Taking some time to look through my blog posts (because I’m so far behind, I couldn’t remember what I’d blogged about!), I realized I never posted about the autumn Waterfalls Workshop!
Let me tell you, it was fantastic! The colors were amazing! The water was flowing! And, we had a fantastic group women attending the one-day Waterfalls Workshop in October. But, shame on me for not blogging about it until now.
Tulip Fields Galore | Don’t Mind the Mud
As I approached the fields upon fields of tulips, I was completely amazed. The fields seemed to go on forever; as far as I could see. Clearly these tulip fields had been well planned and certainly well cared for. But, the surprising thing to me was that they didn't appear to be commercial production. They appeared to be for the sole enjoyment of those who were fortunate enough to visit. Me being one of those lucky people!
We Went for the Bobcats, but Got So Much More!
My friends who photograph wildlife are not shy about hiring a guide to assist us in finding the animals. The guides keep track of the animals by knowing their behaviors and life patterns - hunting, mating, raising their young. Knowing these behaviors helps us avoid unnecessarily disturbing the animals which is definitely something we DO NOT WANT TO DO. Although on this particular day we went for the bobcats, we got so much more!
