Riverside Airshow

(March 31) Tons of people, parking a mile away, no place to sit, but great maneuvers that captivated the kids.

Lizard Games

(March 30) I wish I could think of a better caption. I muffed up a bunch of these. This was the only one where they were both in focus. Here's one of the big guy:

Terrible spike

(March 29) I hate barbed wire, what it stands for and what it does. That said, these strands were kind of nice against the gathering storm.

Btw, I tried cloning out the branch in front of the hummer nest:

It's a big, big, spiky world

(March 28) UCR Botanic Garden yesterday.

Here we go again!

(March 27) This hummer led me to her nest. I don't know if it's the same one who lost her chicks earlier, but it makes a good story if she is. This nest is much more protected in a redwood tree off the path and high up above a bit of a ditch.

And a very friendly lizard for Thusie:

Proposals are due today!!!

(March 26) Today was the deadline for two of our grants programs and we were inundated. Martha is relegated to unburying herself for the remainder of the month. Here is some of what needs to be read and reviewed:

Seat for two

(March 25) I did a double take at an intersection today. This couple was driving around the neighborhood and local park, just having a fine ol' time. Another shot of the car is here:

Up, over, and around

This particular shot may not be the most spectacular, but I love the connection of Chris and the dog via the frisbee. Yes, the dog caught it mid-air after doing a back half-gainer of some sort.

Lizard? What lizard?

(March 23) I'm fascinated by camouflage. This is a bit of a crop.

Annoyed . . . big time

(March 22) No matter that I was quite far away on a walkway between two buildings -- this GHO was not amused.

Two more shots of her here:
