outdoor photography

Dragonfly I'm trying to get into the habit of having my camera with me at all times for those moments I can get out for a little bit of photography.  The other day, while one of my kids was in an appointment, I decided to walk around the lake behind the building to see what I could find. All I found to photograph was this dragonfly and a couple Ospreys at their nest. But after the appointment, I came out into the parking lot to see this Wild Turkey scampering across the parking lot. Thankfully I was able to fire off a few shots.  I thought it was kind of humorous, so I figured I'd share it with you. Wild Turkey Ospreys at Nest

House Sparrow House Sparrows are "old world" sparrows or "true" sparrows which were introduced to the United States about 150 years ago.  The best place to find them, at least around me, is my local grocery store parking lot.  I decided I would go there to photograph these sparrows.  I also decided that doing so is much more dangerous than going to a wildlife refuge.  In a refuge, you only have to deal with alligators, snakes, and an occasional bobcat.  In a parking lot, you have to deal with cars.  Well, it was worth the risk.
