Awesome, wonderful things cameras with long zooms
ReplyDeleteBill-- I could hardly see those harbor seals, but the zoom definitely gave me a view.
DeleteLove that little frog especially!
ReplyDeleteisabelita-- Me too! Love that frog!
DeleteA great way to enjoy wildlife with out disturbing it. You really have an amazing zoom.
ReplyDeletePatti-- Yes, I hadn't even thought about it that way. I could see them and get close without disturbing them!

ReplyDeleteThere is a healing and sustaining power in sharing this sublime beauty and vulnerability. This is the time of year when it is possible to see tree frogs where I walk. It was yesterday in 2016 that I last saw a tree frog and noted it in the wildlife journal I have been keeping since the early 1990s. One must be wide awake and looking closely to see a tree frog here. Tree frogs bring me a feeling of joy.
am-- I love seeing tree frogs too. There were two in the horsetail grasses. One was so small I almost missed it. This life, this is what we must protect, along with all the rest.
DeleteIt's easy to miss so much in our world when we're not paying attention. Those seals are REALLY hard to see, which is funny because they're so big!
ReplyDeleteSteve-- When we first pulled up to the point to take a look, I thought there weren't any Harbor Seals. It really was HARD to see them. Zoom!
DeleteWonderful creatures. What can they teach us.
ReplyDeleteSabine-- They do know how to completely be in their world.
DeleteNice! When I first glanced at the seals I thought they were seashells.
ReplyDeleteColette-- I love the idea of them as seashells!
DeleteVery nice. I love the small images I pull out of my kodak moments.Obviously, you are using a much more sophisticated camera. The seal image was wonderful.
ReplyDeleteMRMacrum-- It made me very happy to see those seals. At first glance, I didn't see them, but it sure was great when we did!
DeleteGood seeing! And your zoom is amazing. The image quality is excellent.
ReplyDeleteThe egret surrounded by all that seaweed is quite a sight. But I confess, what really gets me excited is the horsetail. Those plants haven't changed in 300 million years! That's how old that species is.
It's spreading like crazy in my front yard in Hawley. I'm so happy!
CCorax-- I know! I love seeing that horsetail too. There is something about seeing a species that hasn't changed in 300 million years. I congratulate them on their tenacity.
DeleteYour picture quality is extraordinary! The zooms look as clear as the original pictures. How wonderful that you see so closely, and share it with us.
ReplyDelete37paddington-- It's the only balance I know to the crazy world we are living in. Thank you so much for your kind words.
DeleteI think this is one of the most significant information for me.
ReplyDeleteAnd i’m glad reading your article.
But should remark on some general things, the web site style is perfect,
