Crossed paths with this beauty this morning.
Great Egret
Visited the "Model A's at the Depot" event in my little town today. Rained before the event and that drove the humidity very high but spending a little time in the past was good. About 20 vehicles arrived for the day. Second car show I attended here this weekend. I'm not a car guy by any stretch of the imagination but I now have 100's of pictures and some videos to go through.
Started my day with a little kayak adventure.
Paddling Torch and Rapid Rivers near Traverse City Michigan
Watched the fireworks from my mom's dock last night. My daughter is here in Michigan visiting and she joined me. These are just a few of the pictures I took. The reflection is in the Torch River.
@Hulio Thank you! I used an Insta360 camera. It's the size of a GoPro and shoots 360-degree video. I captured a still from the video and in the editing software I can create several looks. This is one of them.
Local small town airshow last Sunday. Something I usually don't attend but it was a fun day.
@Lindy Thank you! I am really looking forward to seeing my daughter. She is high risk for respiratory infections and the last couple years have been extra difficult for her to travel. But she wants to spend time with family especially two elderly grandmas, so she is coming here. Plus, I am excited about the mural project.
@Lindy I wish I was out chasing dragonflies. I am helping on a big community project. Our local senior center is painting a mural on an outside wall of their building. Many of my photos are being used as references for the design. Once the painting starts in August I will be doing a time lapse video of the process. Plus next week my daughter arrives from Alaska for just over a month visit. She has me running around getting some things together for her time here.
@Lindy One of these old farms is now a nature park. It has several different habitats for wildlife including a nice prairie area so the bird and wild flowers are amazing. Soon the dragonflies will be out in force so I'll spend hours chasing them!
@Lindy Several of the trails I walk are on old farmland. I've found old orchards, berries and flowers hidden away on these lands. Always something new to find.
@Lindy It is. Today was a heavy overcast day while I was out. That helped a lot. I was also taking flower pictures and there were no dark shadows. It was a great start to my day.
@Lindy Orbweavers are really cool! I'm always happy to spot any of them.

@Lindy Thank you! They are beautiful. One of my local parks has several large patches of lupines scattered around. It really adds some nice
color!
