That was a lucky catch!
I’m always surprised when I get home and “develop” the photos.
The rabbit was a shock too, I had no idea he was right there on the edge, under the bush in the shade. I did take a photo before the squirrel got there even though I didn’t see the rabbit (100 feet away). My wife said “He’s there” but she couldn’t quite see him either. Good camouflage!
A Busy Bay on Labor Day
We walked around Mission Bay this morning, dressed as tourists and taking pictures right and left. It was jammed with pedestrians, bikes, boats and wildlife (amazingly!). There’s always drama at the boat launch ramp (a policeman sitting in his car nearby ...
That large beetle mid-flight....
is definitely my pick of the crop today! Happy Labor Day Mike, cheers, Filip

That's easily the best camouflaged rabbit I've ever seen!
Not that I've studied their behavioral patterns, but I've seen them countless times, and never witnessed such strategic nous!! Cheers, Filip
A lucky find
That was painted on a large piece of white paper, off a roll, the kind they use to cover banquet tables. It was in the closet in a classroom at the school where my wife taught. It had been part of a large theatre backdrop, painted in the 80’s by 5-6th gra...
Great story! How does your wife feel about sharing your house with Shakespeare? 😉
I always say, “There’s a story.” Appreciate you sharing!
Boat ramps
My dad used to have a zodiac (the inflatable boat not the watch!) so I spent countless hours helping him get the boat off or back on the trailer and you are right there was always plenty of drama, a great place to observe human nature in real time with a ...
I had an Avon inflatable in the UK
We were merrily cruising on the River Wey near Weybridge, heading for the Thames, when a ranger flagged us down and said, "You can't use a boat with a motor here" I was shocked "Huh? Where is that posted?" He said "Do you have a boat license for the Wey N...
If 1 single good thing has ever come from "social media"...
It has to be "The Qualified Captain" and his channel. Some of the material is scary, even while always based upon stupidity. But the boat ramp stuff is priceless. If I lived near a boat ramp, I would grab a lawn chair and beer in the afternoons and go han...
You're right, and you're welcome
I live near San Diego and Mission Bays, and near us are more than 10 launch ramps open to the public, plus a couple more for military personnel, and two or three more for private yacht clubs. Not to mention the lakes around here too! You have given me a w...
