tsca I grew up in La Canada...haven't been back there in over 30 yrs.


I've been here for over seventy years. My daughter and her family live in La Canada. It's still a great place to live, but the wildlife population has really increased recently. They have two toddlers, so we really have to be alert with bears, bob cats and coyotes appearing even in the middle of the day. We get them in La Crescenta as well. I finally gave up on having bird feeders. The squirrels, skunks and raccoons were bad enough, but since the bears discovered our patio, pool and spa it just wasn't worth it anymore. Enjoy Idaho, we planned to build on land we had in Montana but finally sold it and decided to stay near the grandkids in spite of being stuck in this state.

is like shooting fish in a barrel. Even a complete amateur with a crappy cell phone can actually take a very beautiful sunset photo or even a fairly decent photo of a flower. We see them all of the time here, on UHH. Oh, and I forgot mention the same goes for old farm house and barn pics.

Well, here we go again! Last night my wife said to me, "Look at that beautiful sunset! You really need to take a picture!".

Really? Another one? I live in a residential neighborhood surrounded by F*%^&%ing houses and tall trees. Even if I stood on my deck, any good view is ruined by the house next door.

This amateur came up with a plan but it had to be executed quickly! I used my drone.

Enjoy!

Thanks for posting these! My wife gave me a drone for Christmas in 2020, but other than take it out of the box and order a charger for the battery I haven't touched it because I couldn't imagine using it around my neighborhood which is "surrounded by F*%^&%ing houses and tall trees" just like yours.

After seeing your photos, I realize it's not as impossible to use as I thought it was.

It looks like Ron did not answer. I don't know why he chose it, but Rongnongno is the name of the language used by the people who inhabited Easter Island. I came across this fact once and I knew someday someone would ask what it meant!


Rongnongno isn't the language, you have the wrong spelling. It's Rongorongo, Google it.

Your 24-70mm lens should cover it.


I apologize, the 24-70 is too short! I just looked at the photos from my only visit to a butterfly house 3 years ago on a cruise ship stop. I remembered it being more cramped, but most of my shots were at 70mm. They would've been much better with a longer lens, preferably a macro.

I have not been able to identify this bird from a trip to Cuba about 2 years ago. Help appreciated.


My Merlin Bird ID app says it's a Yellow-faced Grassquit.

I got out this evening and made this attempt at photographing Comet NEOWISE. There was a lot of light pollution from neighbors security lights and Ft. Worth. Now I need to find a location with darker skies, perhaps southwest of here. It's not gret, but it's a start.

Congratulations, you got it in spite of the light pollution!

One of my favorite ballads. I played along with this recording 100's of times and never grew tired of it.
Performed by Lee Morgan, who met his death at the age of 32. He was shot by his common law wife. Lee was taught by Clifford Brown (the tune was named in tribute to him), who died in a car accident at the tender age of 25.

The tune, written by the tenor sax player, Benny Golson, also performs on the track. The composition, in my opinion, captures the sadness of both tragedies.
I had the privilege of seeing & hearing Lee Morgan at Birdland.
