Heaven forbid you take more than 10 seconds to serve him his meal he will hop about and stare you down. In times of truly awful customer service he will fly into the kitchen and find a perch to glare at you from inside. Truly spoilt rotten but we like our little visitor.

Harriet pictured here is, as always, accompanied by Ozzie and their offspring of the season. They have been welcomed morning coffee mates for the last 12 years. The picture captures the calm presence and the dancer's restlessness of these beautiful visitors.

    The Great Reno Balloon Race was this weekend. About a dozen balloon are up and aglow before dawn. This beautiful one was my favorite. Most shooting were using auto white balance, cloudy, or 5600K to keep the yellow cast from the flame. I prefer a white balance which retains the true colors of the balloons, especially for this balloon.
