Best advice for the day... "Stick a broom handle in there and see if you can loosen it."
Today was pretty much all about getting a walk in due to guilt for not walking most of the week. If not for the entire week. To be perfectly honest I don't remember, I don't recall I got no memory of anything -anything at all.
I drove to the garden with Docken joining me on the phone (thank you Docky). I went directly to the territory of the male Calypte anna hummingbird known as Dusty and I was so focused on scanning for him I almost missed this Cooper's hawk directly behind me.
As quickly as I could raise my camera the bird decided to poop.
Their eyes are intense.
I tried to work my way around to the other side after the hawk flew up into a nearby tree but as soon as I got situated it took off and so did I. I went back to the garden one more time but it was very quiet. I decided to add some distance to the walk and went up to the top of the hill but it was quiet there too.
The walk was 2.42 miles.
You'll have to take me just the way that you find me.
That hawk has a penetrating stare !
