Wow, has this been one dreary month so far!! The long range forecast doesn't appear to offer much relief, either. Maybe sun tomorrow. In any case, I haven't been out and about much lately, hence not much new on the photographic end of things. Below are a series of photos of an airport in Portugal. Don't know if they are real or not, but who knows, anything is possible these days......
Beachfront property, no less. The runway is too far from the water for high diving.
Parking underneath......
Sunday afternoon I was outside to fire the boiler and I found this lethargic little snake in the old shed. I'm thinking it is a small pine snake, although the color is a bit strange. Do they take on the color of their surroundings?
It was curled up to strike, but it was moving pretty slowly. Note the neat marking on it's head (enlarge this one).
I was online looking at video recording equipment, and one of the items I was looking for was an external microphone for a camcorder. One of the search pages yielded a page with this video on it. I don't know if it is for real or not, but if not, he still gets and A+ for expert fake playing.
So that about wraps it up for this week. I may be off work next week to bow hunt during the rutting season. I hope the weather gets a little drier by then. One hunting clothes manufacturer insists that there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes. That may be true, but I like to see the sun once in a while....
I gotta go, Carlo

Good luck hunting. Got any criteria for what you take ? We see a few deer here, but not as often as might be expected, and not necessarily in any pattern. We have been hearing coyotes fairly often lately.

Wow!!!!! for snakes, (check yer email), planes, and canon in d. Nyrb
I think that may be an Eastern Milk Snake you found.
Regardless of what type of snake it is, I am glad you found it and not me! Yikes!!

That Eastern Milk Snake was suggested by a few people, one supplying a website. Looks pretty much like the milksnake...
Bob, looking for record trophy buck, will be happy with any 2.5 year old buck caught out in the daylight during the rut.
