Here are some random pictures from the last few weeks.
A big warehouse fire across the river from our condo.
Swifts nested in the chimney. There were thousands of little swifts, birds, that are nesting in this chimney on the way down south. I couldn't take a good picture since it was getting dark and the birds were small. It was still really cool, there were 2 falcons hanging around hoping to get a snack. There were so many little swifts, they were able to chase the falcons away. Twenty thousand? I don't know, there were so many. The falcon waited until most of the swifts went inside then pounced. Yeah, he got himself a snack. It was really fun to see the swirling cloud of birds.
Oaks bottom wildlife refuge. This is right across the river from our condo. Nice trail close to the city. This tree is hollow, but still living. pretty neat.
This is a wetland and there are heron and ducks hanging out here. The heron is in the middle of the water on a little log.
An Eagle nest on Ross Island.
Cityscape - a time base art. This is actually some kind of modern dance performance. It was free and right next to our condo so we went. I don't get modern dance though. They went from Keller to Petty Grove to Lovejoy and finally to the source fountain. They did a performance at each fountain, but we only went to 2.
Indian drum at the Pioneer square yesterday.
Next post coming really soon. :)
