  8. Great pictures Pat!!!! I used to go fishing down at Laguna Niguel Lake! I'd rent a boat and get some bait and just sit out on the lake all day.

  16. Some nice images. Do you live near Laguna Niguel or in it? I spent 23 summer in Laguna, in a beach front rental off Oak St. I will always love it even though it's overdeveloped and chi chi. I have only the best memories of walks along PCH as a teenager, even at night; beach parties, learning to surf (never did succeed); body surfing and rafting. Your goose is lovely as is the osprey. You don't see bottle brush on the East Coast, that's for sure.

  17. Ooooo, what is that fuzzy red plant? Way cool!
    We have geese here at our lake and today they swam up with 6 little fuzzy ducklings...I captured them on my camera so watch for them on my blog in the next week or so.
    Loved these shots!

  20. Thanks for your nice comments at my place.

    What a lovely lake you have near you. I looked it up and see it also has catfish. As an old Texas girl, I'm especially fond of catfish!

  21. Thanks everyone!

    Betty - Thanks! I like this one quite a bit myself.

    Don and Sher - Thanks! It'a called a "bottle brush."

    Copyboy - It's about 3000 stops!LOL

    Ash - thank you my dear!

    Chuck - It is a nice place and it's not too far from where you live...

    Sam - Thanks, it's a nice place.

    California Girl - Thanks! I live in it. You are right about the beach there. It's too hard to get in and out of, but it's still beautiful. Also Laguna Canyon. Did you used to go to the Sawdust Festival?

    Joan - It's a "Bottle Brush." They grown all over here. I'll be watching for the duckies!

    Nevine - Thanks so much! If I could take photos half as well as you write, I'd be a happy man...

    Kathy - Yup, there are a lot of fish there. A little catfish pan fired in corn meal sounds pretty nice!

  27. i want this set of pictures... minus the ducks. all i can think about are the ducks chasing me for bread.... i don't feed ducks bread anymore, because i think it expands in their stomachs or something like that.... i'll trust that they can feed themselves and don't need my old bread to survive.... i really do at least want the top photo.... please and thank you!
