On one of our recent drive by shootings, my girlfriend and I came across this Canada Goose sitting in such a nice picturesque setting that we just had to stop and snap a few pictures. We're not sure if it's nesting or just waiting out the fowl weather(pun/typo intended).

I've always liked this little shot, taken last Fall. This bluebird landed in our crepe myrtle, and the evening light and fall colors just made for a lovely setting.

Beautiful setting, Jetmedix. The bridge, the ducks, the reflections, and the deer, all blend together for a very nice picturesque capture.

I apologize if the size of this file makes it difficult to load but it's my girlfriends photo and unfortunately it's rather large. Early morning mist in Algonquin Park is what makes this setting picturesque.

The ducks reminded me of this really old shot of mine. Taken in Cottonwood Canyon, Colorado in 2006.

I love that you caught him with his mouth open! Really adds a little extra something to the photo.

I was looking for something else when I came across another misty morning from Algonquin Park. I have to say, going through these old photos is really giving me an itch to go camping. *sigh*
