yesterday, I snapped a picture of a very drunken Pirate
He LIKES being called the doglet of love. REALLY. It doesn’t embarass him AT ALL.
Last week, I caught a large spider in a glass and took pictures of it for an “identify this spider” thread in GQ.
On Saturday, I went out to the back yard to monkey with the sprinkler, and a VERY LARGE CREATURE suddenly became FWUP-FWUP-FWUFF airborne, apparently startled by my approach. I froze in shock, and a second or two later I realized that the creature was a sizeable hawk or other bird of prey that had caught a pigeon and was now eating it on my lawn. It looked bizarre when it took off because the dead and partly dismembered pigeon was dangling from its claws, which creates a really weird animal profile at first glance.
It went to the other end of the yard, and I went to get the camera.
By the time I got back, it had gone over the fence into the neighbor’s yard, which means my pictures are probably not very good. I’m intending to start another “identify this critter” thread in GQ, because I’m curious about what kind of raptor was in my yard chowing on skyrat, but I have to get the pictures out of the camera and into the computer to see whether or not they’re clear enough for potential identification.
Just got back from a morning of garden tours, so about 100 pictures of plants and various bits of yard art.

Mostly, I’ve been uploading pictures to Flickr, so I can start spending $ on prints. So far, 1,521 pictures loaded in 2 weeks. Another 600+ to go.

And, not all that recently, but my most recent major shoot:
The City of Chicago (15 photos total at that link)
The strip of grass in our yard between my neighbor’s fence and our coldframe, that the neighbor sprayed with weedkiller and killed. If she’d sprayed another six inches into the coldframe and gotten the vegetables, I would have called the police and had her charged with assault, or attempted murder. As it was, the city building inspector she sicced on us said we could have a civil case against her. The photos are in case she ever harasses us again.
The ones this afternoon were of grapes .

Unless you under instruction from ATC, you were not high enough over the housing area and since you were not climbing or decending, it does not appear that you were manuvering to reamain clear of a birthday cake. (control zone)
