Gotta dash, as an unexpected trip has just come up - will finish my descriptions later, when I get back.
Continuing late evening: fifteen minutes before my alarm clock was due to go off this morning - set because I needed to get all sorts of things done today - my phone rings. Friend Phil said he was going to take a drive south of the city and did I want to come. Did I WANT to come, lol? A while later, I met up with him and our friend Rob, and off we went to the High River area for a few hours. Sightings included a Short-eared Owl sitting on a fence post and a Long-eared Owl, and a few Horned Larks. I think I can "rescue" one of my Short-eared Owl photos so that it's OK to post. I could tell at the time that all my photos, taken from inside the car, just were not coming out properly. This sometimes happens and I'm never quite sure why. The light wasn't quite right for my point-and-shoot and maybe there was still some heat rising from the vehicle, despite it being turned off. It was a great sighting, though. Perhaps the best that I've ever had of this species of Owl. Thanks a lot for the invitation, Phil - always much appreciated! On my way home from our meeting place, I drove all the way to the Glamorgan Bakery, getting there shortly before it closed. I only go there once a year, to buy the same delicious things, including their cheese buns, for which they are well known : ) I even posted the last half dozen of my overseas Christmas cards and letters today - they will arrive so late, but I am so relieved that they are finally done.
