What you lookin' at, fool?

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

Better like this?

Or better like this?

Okay, enough posing. I’m outta here.

you and a friend, or a spouse, or your family were coming to the wetlands of South Louisiana? I would seriously like to know, based on your knowledge of this area or what you’ve learned from this blog, what would you like to do and see while down here for a few days? Would you…
Hey, Blondie, where’s all the grub? Hey, what are YOU looking at? Don’t just sit there staring at me! Go get my bathwater ready! Could you get me a snack while I check out the bathtub? Hmmmm, it looks clean enough. Let me ease on in here and check out the water temp. Ahhhhhh, that’s…
EPBush wants another point of view. Ask and ye shall receive! From the back deck, this is the south side of the house, looking toward the bayou. Then this is the north side of the house facing toward the bayou. So, Em, what do you think? Curiosity satisfied? This is what I saw from the…
Day 12 LilSis went back to North Louisiana yesterday. She was the glue that held me together for about a week or so. I really miss her. Thank you, Lil Sis for everything. Those words just don’t begin to express the gratitude I feel. We are going home today, though not to our old home. …
It’s NAME THIS FLOWER CONTEST time again. I know you’ve been biting your nails and pulling out your gray hair in all your spare time, just waiting for this moment to arrive on your computer screen. So please, don’t be shy. Be brave. Venture a guess. And remember, these are flowers that I come across…
Well, folks, I feel like I’ve been chasing my tail here for the past week or so. The progress on the house is slow, and the rough electrical and plumbing do not tend to be the subject of beautiful photography. However, these behind-the-scene things are vital to a house running smoothly. You know, things like…
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.
