When I went outside the other day, I noticed a big, white ball of fluff through the trees. I got my camera and it turned out to be a Great White Heron (or Great White Egret). I had some difficulty in getting this photo, as the wind was strong enough to push me around while I was trying to stand still.

How many Northern Cardinals do you see?
And some Cardinals in a pear tree . . .
I count seven males, five females in this bare Bradford Pear tree. (No partridges, though.)
There they are!
It's a long story ...
