Saw my first ever Osprey take tonight. Hadn't even got the camera set (only 1/2000s) before I heard a scream and saw it descending. Taking the fish, it flew left of me to the trees. Seeing a bigger Bald eagle, did a quick U-turn and flew off. Eagle gave up. Heavy crop and clean in PSP. #Minnesota

What a couple! That's a memory to cherish. Did they know back then that they would produce one of the greatest rock musicians of the 2020s? 😁

Late for my dental appointment last Monday because my road was blocked by a rather nice snake. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. Gopher/Bull snake. #minnesota

I grew some new teeth. I went into my US dentist with some very old and failing amalgam fillings from my UK dentist and came out with new, white teeth. Two crowns and a bridge and it only cost me $4200 after insurance. 😬

Or decent music. Very good interview on @npr.org this morning with Beck. He explained very well how AI could never replicate the skills and creativity of five guys in a studio together that had worked together for 30 years. Fck AI. Long live humans!

Oh, I'd have fun with this one if I were still at school. I abhor christo-fascists as much as I do racists. These people are both!

Lovely shot. They're really moving through southeast Minnesota right now. Had around a dozen land in my cherry tree, all calling away. Sneaked inside to get the camera and they were gone when I got back out. 😭

So many Ring Billed Gulls along my Mississippi River commute this week. The Mississippi Flyway is a major migration route, guiding multiple species of birds on their north/south migrations. Sneaky juvenile Bald Eagle in one of the shots too. Sony A7RM4A Sony FE200-600G #Minnesota

#BirdOfTheDay Alt theme #Brown Coincidentally for the alt theme, I shot these yesterday on the way home from work. Minnesota has the highest resident nesting population of Bald Eagles in the lower 48 states. Plenty of this season's juveniles can be seen along the Mississippi River. #Minnesota

Happy birthday sir. Have a great one. Stay away from red balloons in drains, even if they do say 'Happy Birthday' on them. It's a trick.

My first DSLR was an Olympus e-620. I look back at the IQ, even with less MP, and it still impresses me. I sold it all for a Fuji bridge superzoom and loved that, but then missed lens choices. Hence my switch to Sony about 12 years ago.

I bought mine, used with 10k shutter count, about 6 months ago. It was an upgrade from my a6400, which I still have and use. Image quality with the 200-600G and 61mp is great from when I'm monitoring Peregrine nest sites and zooming in on legs bands. Glad you're enjoying it.

Governor Mark Dayton was in office when I moved to MN from England and I always felt a sense of calm, decency, care and good governance. Thank you for continuing the work and making things even better. Now, we just need universal healthcare and I'll feel right at home. 😉
