A Splash

Today I went over to a friends and discovered some of the mysterious workings of a Porsche. Eck gads when the hood lid is stuck and the cable breaks – you have to take the dang wheel off and the inner wheel well to hunt around for a little wire that is suppose to be an emergency release. The opperative word here would be suppose. I am glad I do not own a Porsche with milk, chicken, eggs, and beef stuck in the trunk!

Moving along down the road I stopped at a site where I have seen a couple of Egrets hanging about. No Egrets oh well. Lots of ducks flapping their wings and diving about. I have the 80-400mm lense on locked at 400mm and all my attentions focused on a duck across the little creek when I here a jingle similar to that of dog tags hitting each other. All of a sudden there is a dog jumping about the water in front of me chasing ( his owner later told me) a beaver. I somehow got the camera refocused and actually came out of the wet affair with a picture.

I am getting better at catching the action but not clear as they could be – need to work on the shutter speed deal.
