Captured this photo of a beautiful Oriole while up in Wisconsin earlier in the week. So many different birds up there than around home.

Lucky Duck
This poor little guy was stuck in the road on his back. Two cars drove right over the top of him and didn't even try to stop. Fortunately he was just dazed and made it back to mama.

Abandoned
Old building (I believe it was probably a garage) near Chocteau Island. A drab dreary day out but this caught my eye.

Reluctant Subject
Here is my reluctant subject for the evening. Cookie hates the camera but ended up letting me snap a few. The focus didn't come out quite right but I still love her pose.

Flood waters
Silver Creek over its banks on Old Lebanon road south of Troy Illinois. Needless to say the road is closed.

Silo and Sky
It's been a beautiful summer here in St. Louis this year. The Troy Grain silo is always one of my favourite views here in town. The boy was driving so I was able to snap this picture while the light was red.

Fun in the fountain
A beautiful day here in St. Louis. The family and I went down to the new Citygarden in St. Louis. A wonderful addition to the city.

Malcom W. Martin Memorial Park
Looking up the ramp at Malcom W. Martin Memorial Park in East St. Louis Illinois. The view of St. Louis fantastic from the top.

Baby Turtle
Found this guy in the driveway today flat on his back. Thought he was dead at first but I saw him move a leg and open his mouth. Put him in a plastic dish with some water and he seems to be recovering a bit. Suspect a bird was trying to eat him and he got dropped.

Jukka, Emmpu & Annette of Nightwish
A fantastic concert last night by Nightwish at Pop's. I missed them last year due to circumstances beyond my control but not this year! I've heard some criticism of Annette's ability to pull songs off live but she was outstanding. The band seemed to be having a good time. Glad to see a sizable crowd at Pop's. More Nightwish fans out there in St. Louis than I imagined.

Schneider Paint Company Fire
Just finished mowing the lawn when I noticed the fire just to the north of the subdivision.

Another Sunday, another round of CD ripping
Another Sunday, another round of CD ripping. I'd say I'm about 60% done with the project so far. Some of these CDs haven't been out of their cases in years. Some I had forgotten I even had though I see them on the wall all the time.

Forgotten
Saw this little teddy bear in a car at the junk yard yesterday. Just kind of made me a bit sad to see it sitting there. What is the story behind it?

Bald Eagle
It was Eagle Day at the Chain of Rocks bridge. This beauty was inside treating all the visitors to a show.

Red Wing Blackbirds
This picture doesn't even come close to showing the number of birds that were in the field.

The 1st of November
The 1st of November and the leaves are beautiful on the maple in the front yard.
Halloween
Another Halloween over and gone. Hard to believe it is now November. Think I will leave the pumpkin out a few days more though.

Spider close up
As seen just as I was getting ready to leave work. I don't care for spiders but this was a big beauty.
