Mallards ... Burr

I saw this pair of mallards in the Miami River this week. It was so cold. I am glad it was them in the water and not me. Burr

Ruffled feathers

Another photo from earlier this summer. I believe this photo was taken at Garby Big Woods. It was windy, and her feathers were ruffled. Nature is not always perfect:).

The inquisitive mind

FullSizeRender.jpg

This grey catbirds looks so curious. She reminds of the curiosity of a young child. When we are young, we are so open to new ideas, and change. As we get older, we tend to be less willing to change .. to has the ask questions that make us uncomfortable. Curiosity expands the mind!

I listened to the Akimbo podcast by Seth Godin. In a recent eposide, Seth takes about education. He specifically discussed issues with our education system in the US. I’m not going to dive into details, but recommend you listen to this when you have time. Here is the link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/akimbo-a-podcast-from-seth-godin/id1345042626?mt=2

What about you and me? I believe that individuals can cultivate a curious mind. This is not just for the young! Even someone in their ‘gold years’ can do things to help develop curiousity. Try do eat different foods, read broad opinions, listen to all kinds of people and ideas. This does not mean you will agree with everyone your read or hear, but it will broaden your base.

Have a great day!

This Blue Jay photo goes back about 6 weeks. I have so many photos that I have not shared here yet. I almost missed this this shot.

Just thinking back ..

I shot this photo a couple weeks ago and I forgot to post it. I had the wrong lens on my camera for the photograph, so even at 200mm, she was too far away. I still love the image. The depth of field makes the background appear confused and noisy, while main image is focus. I can’t make out the second bird, and I am guessing I did not even see him.
