You lookin’ at me? Well, then, take a picture. It’ll last longer!
Better like this?

Marsh Grass Planting on TE-44
or . . . a day in the marsh with the wind, the water, and wild teenagers! What in the world is a marsh grass planting? Well, I’m about to tell you. When a restoration project is undertaken, there is “new soil” that needs to be planted in order to be kept from washing away. Sometimes,…
Bayou Fabio: The Don of Dularge
That’s the title of last night’s FOX 8 news piece written by my friend Carolyn Scofield. Sorry I can’t post the video here, but it belongs to FOX 8 so I will just give you the link and hope you follow it today and enjoy this great mini view of my friend Rickey, whom I lovingly nick-named Bayou Fabio about ten years ago.
I will be back here later, hopefully with a good update about the opening week of brown shrimp season.

Decade Trout
We pulled into the lake about 7 a.m. looking for clean water and it looked pretty decent so we began to drift and cast. Termite commented that the boats looked like they were all on anchor, and there was not much wind action. We watched them for a minute and once in a while they…
A Christmas Past . . .
I love warm fuzzy stories. So, I’ll share a little one with you, if you will then share a little one with us. Deal? About four years ago, money was a little tight around Christmas, so I needed to be very resourceful about gifts for the children. Danno (17 at the time) came to me…
Shrimp Bisque
You know, sometimes you just have to take time out to smell the roses or help a friend. That’s exactly what I did last Thursday when my friend, Kay, asked me to take a ride with her to Dulac to pick up some fresh shrimp from a boat docked behind Schmoopy’s, our favorite local restaurant….
What song was he/she dancing to?? Too funny!
The “chicken song” Katy Bug! I need you to write me!!!
I wish my thighs looked like that!
Green heron or Night heron. I feel the need to du de Du soon.
Lean on Darth for me…..
Blu, maybe you just need to offer Timothy James (Darth) to pay for the whole trip and then he can come? He told me he was too broke to come down! But I did lean on him!
Is that a mature bird? Hard to tell his size. His colors are soooooooooo beautiful. I think the males of all the bird species are always “purtier” than the females.
Steffi: our male species are the ones generally blessed with the long, dark eyelashes, great skin and better cheek bones. Us females? We have Maybelline! Just my thoughts.
Of course, I love all the herons, but I especially love these. It is a green heron, and they are much smaller than all the other herons. So yes, I would say it is no longer a juvenile. He is a newcomer to the place where I photographed him. Typically they are more shy than the other herons, flitting from bush to shore to eat and not hanging out in the open for too long at a time. But this one was a captive subject! Pretty much had him cornered!
Green herons are beautiful! We saw quite a few of them in FL.
If he’s a Green Heron, why is he blue? Is it because he’s lonely? LOL
I think the photo color is a little off from reality because he was more dark green than blue. I should have adjusted the color, I guess.
Tried that with all the yankees, no bites. Harder to lasso than dolphin on porpoise. That’s gonna leave a mark…..ouch.
Them birds hide in the shore reeds and cat tail here. Had one over in Indiana that liked my old gray plastic boat couldn’t hang on to gunwales though. Tried three aborted landing… Usually they flush out right at your head then back in the reeds.
Mute swans however will kill you coming out of the reeds. Different story….
Blu, are you speaking in code again? None of the yanks want a paid trip down to bayou country? Maybe you should check your mouthwash and deodorant! LOL!!!
Kids, jobs, and women are main issues. Legal and stuff are others.
Saw a green heron at E tonight. I took it as a sign the bluegill were gonna hit and they did.
