Recommended Posts

Pictures taken between Monday, April 15 and Sunday, April 21.

 

Pictures taken between Tax Day and Easter....there's some inspiration!

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Tax Day?  Hmmm, not 30 June already!!

 

Anyway, I was off on my morning stroll yesterday and spotted a crow. I wonder what that crow is eating I said to myself. So I sat down on a seat about 3 metres away and took some pics, because i had not seen a crow eating a snake on my morning walk before.

 

Not sure that I am more amazed by th photo op, or that there are snakes on my walk. The crow did not seem worried.

The age-old question loses some meaning when a dead president hatches from the cheap, mass produced plastic egg it was stuffed into. This year’s annual Easter Egg Hunt showed just how large the family has grown over the years. Despite the growth, the event is still one of the happiest events of the year. The food is always incredible and there is always too much. It has also shown the changes in values. Kids used to shake the eggs to see if there was change in them before they picked them up. They still shake them, but the ones that rattle are left as they search for the ones with the folding money. If it was me, I’d give all the eggs a pass and look for the magic chicken that laid them.

 

Which Came First?

No, they're not fighting - these two wood storks are mating, and this is a courting dance...while other wood storks look on in envy in the background:
