In the past two days, I’ve gotten a shitload of images, at least four post’s worth, so I’ll be working my way down through them over the next few days (hopefully without adding too many as I go.) Right now, we’ll stick to a minor bit of drama.
Going past the fireplace last night, I thought something looked off, and a closer look revealed why.
Not really sure
You’ll notice that I corrected the roman numerals this time, after blowing it for the last two Estate Find posts – don’t ask me what I was thinking. And we have nothing new for this one, but we’ll feature two for the week anyway.
The first was done at the same time as the previous post’s pics, only about a meter or so away. I saw a flash of movement as I got closer,
I know, no posts for five days and I come back with that previous one. You’ve probably already switched over to some celebrity gossip site, haven’t you?
I blame it on conditions. For over a week we’ve been dealing with the side effects of some storm system and it’s been solid overcast the entire time – that’s simply not normal for this area. However, this is directly
We have The Manatee over as a guest this week and have thus been busy doing things other than chasing critters, but I have to give him credit for finding this one, immediately upon my commenting that I needed to try and find something. Our first view comes from inside, looking out, early in the morning:
For reasons unknown, one window of Stately Walkabout Manor has been overtaken
While I have some video clips to edit together, that will take some time, and I already have these pics edited and ready to go, so we’ll have them first. Lucky us, eh?
First, we have a follow-up, rather badly outdated now, for one that was featured about a month ago. The white-banded crab spider (Misumenoides
It’s been interesting watching the various wildlife that rotates around Walkabout Estates Plus, their schedules and habits, though we’ve only been here a year and so we don’t know if these are schedules. The visitors we like the most are the wood ducks, but they remain exceptionally spooky and so photos and video of them are tricky, often having to be
As if most of my posts aren’t the exact same thing…
So, two purposes for this one. The first is a reminder that the Draconids meteor shower is going on right now and expected to peak tomorrow night, actually around 19:00 UTC on October 8th,
So, I should be catching up with writing some posts that have images awaiting usage, or editing video, or cleaning up Walkabout Studios, or any number of other things, but instead I went out last night to use the bright moonlight for some experiments. Which turned out okay, really, and that’s better than a lot of experiments that I do, one of which is another waiting post.
The back forty of
I had a couple of returning subjects that I could have used, and plans to try for something early this morning (about a half-hour from when this actually posts) that may or may not pan out, but I came across this one last night and knew I had my weekly subject.
First off, this was a weekly subject from last year, only back then I was doing the critters that I’d only ever photographed
Somehow, these months keep ending, which someone should be looking into – I’m sure this isn’t a good thing. But while it’s happening, we’ll at least keep noting this occurrence (until we don’t, anyway) with the month-end abstract. The first was not actually intended to be an abstract as such, but it worked out quite well as one, plus it looks cool. Or at least
