Thank you. These were taken about 7:30 AM this morning.
The sun was up, but it was still pretty low in the sky.

Thank you. I hope the park is not ruined with all of the construction going on there now. The entire area to the north has been mowed down.

Thank you. He seemed to be quite the character. I believe the only reason I was able to easily get this close to him was that there was noisy gaggle of geese about 30 yards away; I doubt he could hear my footsteps as I approached and setup.
