We have a few hawks in the area but they mostly hang out near the wetlands behind us. In this case (see upper right of photo) this one flew to the front. Hunting, I think, chipmunks.

Michigan in the Fall, 2018
Here’s a shot looking out our back window. We live on a former lake that has become swampy and will eventually will turn into a meadow.
Eastern Market – Fall 2018
Always nice to go to Eastern Market. Fall makes it even better. Took a couple of, admittedly, not terribly interesting pics.
Owl at Cooley Lake
Not the greatest picture but this is the first time I’ve seen an Owl out here. Lots of red-tailed hawks.
I just happened to catch him (her?) flying out the corner of my eye.
Image from the Vienna Opera House
During our visit to Vienna we wandered by the Vienna Opera House. Amazing space. This fountain is off to one side.
Favorite statue in Vienna
My wife and I were in Vienna a couple of years ago and took this photo. Love the statue. The name at the bottom is ‘Ferdinand Raymond’. Here’s a link to a Wikipedia article about him. Kind of a sad end:
When Raimund was bitten by a dog, which he falsely believed to be rabid, he shot himself on 29 August 1836 and died on 5 September 1836 in Pottenstein, aged 46.
A bit of snow on the back deck
We had a bit of snow this past weekend. We got about 15 inches in total.
