Thank you Tracy. Fortunate indeed. We only get them twice a year...early spring and mid-fall during their migrations. That's a sad story for a first sighting....and "almost" as sad your second. :roll:
I'll bet bet you made up for it with some beautiful landscapes though! :D

Nice set Perry. I think the Goldfinch is one of the prettiest birds there are. Are you familiar with the Cedar Wax Wing? My next favorite.
Wow that's pretty. I wonder if that was what my wife got a shot of, I thought it was a female cardinal giving off a different hue from the sun set. I will have to find it and then I will post it perhaps tomorrow night.

Thanks! And I need the warning. I can see myself getting addicted quick..
It was an unexpectedly cool day, and they were swarming on the light post. When they are swarming, bees, especially the less aggressive native bees, aren't concerned with observers. The cooler weather helps. Just don't poke them, I don't know what they'd do. :)

I had some wild life in my car today, left the top down and although I am not afraid of these guys at all, he caught me off guard and I almost had to call Gieko! (sp?)
Out of focus, I was driving!

Oh, that's funny! We have them here too but I think I would have gotten it out of the car before driving.

Nonmar,
I would've but I was already driving when he made an appearance, anyway, he was cute enough to bring home!

That is too funny, I'm glad you aren't phobic of those little anoles, it wouldn't have been funny if you would have wrecked your car freaking out. The shot on the key chain was quite nice considering the fact you were driving.

Hmm, maybe the gieco gecko was on vacation, so they sent the anole to get you to switch? LOL :lol:

He's so cute, not a bad shot for someone driving. Anyway if I brought him home my cat would eat him...... Which could make for a good wildlife shot.
I over exposed this shot, shame he was in such a perfect postion and his color was good against the leaf.... such is life. I've only been shooting 20 months. With a DSLR. and this was the new one I had just gotten.
The frog from the bass
Geico? anyone.
