  • Catching Up

    About ten days ago, I visited the harbor at Dana Point again for a few minutes.  On the way there, I saw evidence that the ground was grateful for the little bit of rain we had during the previous 4 days -- there is a color green!

    There were a few herons in their nests, though not many, as it was too early in the afternoon and they were out fishing.

    On a weekend afternoon, the entrance to the channel was quite busy!

    I visited the harbor again today, and will post more photos in a day or two.

  • Beautiful greens, blues, and a great shot of the heron. Can hardly wait for Spring to bring the green back to the Midwest! :-)

    • Unfortunately the green will soon turn to brown, as we seem to have had our rain for the year! Glad you enjoyed these!

  • ahhhh, how I long to see green in our area again ~ it has been soooo long!!

    • Unfortunately, this green will only last another few days -- we seem to have had our rains for the year! We had a few days of green last year, but it's a long time since we've had a good green spring!

  • The herons are my favorite! I wonder about the little ski doo things amongst the bigger boats, that would make me very nervous I think...then again I'm old and cautious =) Have a Great Weekend Janet!

    • hahaha -- the little ski doo things make me very nervous even without bigger boats around! Glad you like the herons -- I have a couple of new posts in the wings, and there will be lots of herons!

  • Wow. when I looked outside this morning it had snowed again. Everything was a bright white. I am sick of snow. I want to see the green again! Thanks for the appetizer of spring green in the photos!!

    • This green will unfortunately change to brown very soon -- a week or two is likely all we'll get this year, and it's been a long time since we've had a good green spring!

  • I was relieved to see San Diego sporting its signature greenery, over the past two days. Looking forward to a similar scene today in OC.

    • I hope you saw some green in OC, Gary (forgot to ask you!) -- and I expect you will in San Clemente. At least the sun came out this afternoon!

  • yes, the little dessert plants don't need much rain but that's why they survive in the dessert.

    • But the rest of the little plants, like this grass close to home, needs more rain to stay green for longer than a few days!

  • Janet, I really love your photo work. You are a pro!!
