Snow At The Pond - Sunday, January 21, 2007

Today's weather was a lot different then Friday. On my way home I decided to stop at the pond. It was already getting to dark to take photos yet these two didn't come out so bad.

The Pond - January 19, 2007

I had extra time before candle lighting last Friday. The pond is only a few minutes away from where I live. It had been a beautiful sunny day and figured I had time so I went out to the pond.

I never saw so many different types of birds in one place. It was almost as if they were gathering for shabbat.

Gary The Friendly Goose - January 19, 2007

The strangest thing happened the other day when I stopped at a local pond to take some photos. As soon as I got out of my car I was greeted by the following goose. He followed me around every where I went. The funny thing was that every time I would aim the camera at something besides him, he would honk at me. At one point I thought he wanted to see my camera so I extended my hand with the camera.

Swan Lake - January, 2007

I was driving down a road with a friend out somewhere I think in Hartford County, MD. We came upon a small lake with two swans swimming. The photo's didn't come out that clear, yet I still like them.

Sparks and the NCR Trail - January, 2007

There's this wonderful hiking, biking, jogging trail just outside of Baltimore known as the NCR Trail. The following photos are right near the Sparks entrance. The trail on what was once the old North Central Railroad tracks. It goes from just north of Baltimore, MA to York, PA.

Don't forget to click on each photograph to make them larger.

I had a few minutes today to get away. Drove out Park Heights Rd. to where ended, out to Tufton Rd. and beyond. The sun kept playing hide and seek.

Not sure what to say about these cows. They were all just standing around doing the cow thing.

Horses of Baltimore County - January 14, 2007

It was a very warm Sunday afternoon. Very difficult to believe it was January 14th. The grass is getting pretty green. There's even buds on the trees. One would think it was early spring instead of the middle of winter.

Strange Duck - January, 2007

I was at the pond and saw this duck. I was trying to figure out if it was injured or not. Couldn't tell if the straw was under its wings or not? The duck was acting as if everything was fine. Just a strange picture I guess.

Traffic Jam I-95

I was driving on I-95 last week. The traffic was at a stand still. I looked out my side window and this is what I saw.
