There's a meme going around Facebook with a picture of Einstein. It says something like "Get a job, and within 14 days you will come into some money." Yup. I like that one. I got extra work hours both yesterday and today. At the middle of the month that should produce a nice reward.
Meanwhile, I forgot I had gotten these pictures. Last week I stopped to take a picture of this beautiful tamarack swamp.

Can you spot the difference between the two photos?

I just got lucky. The bird flew right across the scene as I snapped a picture. I saw it go, and then managed to find where it landed.
Of all the photos I snapped while it sat in a tree, only one is in focus. It's a baby red-tail hawk. They don't develop the red tail till later. I think this one is pretty young. Younger than the one at What a Teenager!

Beautiful catch, Sharkey! I saw the difference immediately.
ReplyDeleteNice catch. I didn't spot it in the second picture. I like that saying about getting a job.
ReplyDeleteFunny how that job/money thing works. Works?
