Description
Hi Everybody!
I had a wonderful time at Jill's, and now I'm home, safe and sound.
I'm tired and a bit bedraggled (much like my heron friend, here!) but boy, did I have a good time!! :)
(The heron is from a day at the beach at Edmonds, Washington, and has nothing to do with my vacation to Oregon, other than how he looks is pretty much how I feel!)
The West Coast had quite the little heat wave this weekend. We had planned on temperatures in the mid-70s when I booked my flight, but it was over 90F every day I was there. Yikes! Central Oregon is high desert (and it's a DRY heat!), but still - that's really hot.
I'll be posting pictures of the wonderful places we saw, but not tonight! It took forever just to load all my photos from my camera to the computer. I shot 991 images in three days!!!
Thanks to Jill (JillianElf) for a great weekend. I had SUCH a good time! :)

Look at those wings, WOW I only wish I would have taken it, very nice work my friend :)
Quite excellent !
glad your safely back and more so that you had a great time :o)..i hope you dont look as bedraggled as this poor heron as he looks a little worse for wear ..excellent shot and did i say glad your back :o) mick
I'm glad you are back home so that you can now download your pictures and share them with us. I love seeing Oregon through the eyes of its vistors. This is one of the best all time bird shots ever. I've never seen a poor bird look this bedraggled. This is rather how I felt after my physical therapy this morning ...I can really identify with the poor thing.
Man is this thing alive lol. Well you got back just in time to cool down. Sounds like a good time was had, can't wait to see the trip pics. So rest up and enjoy the cool weather lol.
Oh yeah, smart bird...it meekly obeyed the robber when he shouted "hands up, and gimme yur money!" Kind of hard to do when you have your wings raised. Either that, or it's saying, "come on over here Tara, and I'll give you a big hug!" Anyway, I think this is a pretty good capture of the heron. I like the textured ocean lapping at the shore. And 991 shots during your sabbatical? Happy postwork, my dear! Can we say, 20-picture collages? Anyway, get some needed rest, so you can unbedraggle yourself to post nonstop shots of your junket.
such HUGE wing span on that scrawny little body LOL GREAT capture .. love it :)
Very nice capture of the Heron and I sincerely hope that you are really in better shape than the poor bird, lol. Great shot.
